Quaternion Struct (System.Numerics)

Represents a vector that is used to encode three-dimensional physical rotations.

Is this what you were looking for?

be more specific, do you want a quarternion that when applied to what will rotate towards an object the world forward vector? a specific forward vector?

Like Slerp said, its more dependent on what you're trying to do, but I guess you could do something like

Quaternion dir = Quaternion.LookRotation((TargetObj.position - transform.position).normalized);
transform.rotation = Quaternion.RotateTowards(transform.rotation, dir, speed * Time.deltaTime);

Quaternion dir = Quaternion.LookRotation((TargetObj.position - transform.position).normalized);
transform.rotation = Quaternion.RotateTowards(transform.rotation, dir, speed * Time.deltaTime);

Quaternion dir = Quaternion.LookRotation((TargetObj.position - transform.position).normalized);
transform.rotation = Quaternion.Slerp(transform.rotation, dir, speed * Time.deltaTime);

Quaternion dir = Quaternion.LookRotation((TargetObj.position - transform.position).normalized);
transform.rotation = Quaternion.Slerp(transform.rotation, dir, speed * Time.deltaTime);

but without unity in front on me to check those, I'm not 100% they're exactly what you want
