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]
Due to the recycling problem of phosphoryl chloride, SW was adopted in step three of the DMHP process in the preparation of Sarin. [5] SW was also adopted as a standard precursor to V agents, having been used to prepare QL for unitary and binary VX. SW was the first agent adopted to prepare VX in one pot reaction by aqueous medium. [6]
It will react with thionyl chloride to produce methylphosphonic acid dichloride, which is used in the production of sarin and soman nerve agents. Various amines can be used to catalyse this process. [3] It can be used as a sarin-simulant for the calibration of organophosphorus detectors.
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. Methylphosphonic acid is a white, non-volatile solid that is poorly soluble in organic solvent but soluble in water and common alcohols.
Most processes begin with phosphorous acid (aka phosphonic acid, H 3 PO 3), exploiting its reactive P−H bond. [1] [3]Phosphonic acid can be alkylated via the Kabachnik–Fields reaction or Pudovik reaction to give aminophosphonate, which are useful as chelating agents.

The compound is an intermediate for the synthesis of other chemicals for instance dimethylphenylphosphine: C 6 H 5 PCl 2 + 2 CH 3 MgI → C 6 H 5 P(CH 3) 2 + 2 MgICl. Many tertiary phosphines can be prepared by this route. [3] In the McCormack reaction dichlorophenylphosphine adds dienes to give the chlorophospholenium ring. [4]
Methylphosphonyl difluoride (DF), also known as EA-1251 [2] or difluoro, [3] is a chemical weapon precursor. Its chemical formula is CH 3 POF 2.It is a Schedule 1 substance under the Chemical Weapons Convention.
