Methylphosphonyl dichloride (DC) or dichloro is an organophosphorus compound. It has commercial application in oligonucleotide synthesis, [1] but is most notable as being a precursor to several chemical weapons agents. It is a white crystalline solid that melts slightly above room temperature. [2]
Methyldichlorophosphine is produced by alkylation of phosphorus trichloride with methyl iodide followed by reduction of the resulting phosphonium salt with iron powder: [2] [3]
Methylphosphonic acid is an organophosphorus compound with the chemical formula CH 3 P(O)(OH) 2.The phosphorus center is tetrahedral and is bonded to a methyl group, two OH groups and an oxygen.
Dimethyl methylphosphonate can be prepared from trimethyl phosphite and a halomethane (e.g. iodomethane) via the Michaelis–Arbuzov reaction. [2]Dimethyl methylphosphonate is a schedule 2 chemical as it may be used in the production of chemical weapons.
The compound exhibits the properties characteristic of a primary phosphine, i.e., a compound of the type RPH 2.It can be oxidized to methylphosphonous acid: . MePH 2 + O 2 → MeP(H)O 2 H
