Abstract
Novel compounds having the general formula: ##STR1## are disclosed, wherein R.sub.1 is selected from the group including C.sub.5 -C.sub.22 alkyl or alkenyl; R.sub.3 and R.sub.5 are independently selected from the group including hydrogen or C.sub.1 -C.sub.12 alkyl or alkenyl; R.sub.4 is either --(CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 O).sub.z H, or ##STR2## or C.sub.5 -C.sub.22 alkyl or alkenyl; x, y, and z are integers of 1 or more and whose sum is between 2 and 15; and X.sup..crclbar. is an anion, preferably bis-(ethylene)borate. These ethoxylated quaternary benzyl compounds are useful as fabric softeners.
