DIMETHYL PHOSPHATE Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

clear colorless to yellow or brown liquid

Uses

Dimethyl Phosphate is used to mimic and model the properties of the phosphate group, a structural fragment of nucleic acids and phospholipids.

Definition

ChEBI: Dimethylphosphate is a dialkyl phosphate.

General Description

Syrupy pale yellow liquid.

Air & Water Reactions

Water soluble.

Reactivity Profile

Organophosphates, such as DIMETHYL PHOSPHATE, are susceptible to formation of highly toxic and flammable phosphine gas in the presence of strong reducing agents such as hydrides. Partial oxidation by oxidizing agents may result in the release of toxic phosphorus oxides.

Fire Hazard

DIMETHYL PHOSPHATE is probably combustible.
