Chemical Structure

Diethyl (Trichloromethyl)phosphonate CAS 866-23-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Diethyl (Trichloromethyl)phosphonate is closely related to a phosphonate group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Diethyl (Trichloromethyl)phosphonate (CAS 866-23-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H10Cl3O3P, MW 255.46 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a phosphonate group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Diethyl (Trichloromethyl)phosphonate is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 255.46 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
