Hydroxymethyl phosphonic acid diethyl ester (CAS: 25168-49-0) is a specialized organophosphorus intermediate synthesized via esterification of hydroxymethylphosphonic acid with ethanol. Its molecular formula is C5H13O4P, serving as a critical building block for high-performance flame retardants and water treatment agents.
Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from oxidizers. Use appropriate PPE to prevent skin contact and inhalation of vapors; avoid discharge into environmental water sources.
