CAS 10596-32-4: difluoromethylene diphosphonate

Description: Difluoromethylene diphosphonate is a chemical compound characterized by its unique structure, which includes two phosphonate groups attached to a difluoromethylene moiety. This compound is often utilized in biochemical and pharmaceutical research due to its ability to mimic natural phosphate esters, making it a valuable tool in studying enzyme mechanisms and metabolic pathways. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its form and purity. The presence of fluorine atoms enhances its stability and reactivity, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions. Difluoromethylene diphosphonate is also known for its potential applications in the treatment of bone-related diseases, as it can influence bone metabolism and mineralization processes. Its solubility in polar solvents and relatively low volatility make it suitable for laboratory use. However, like many phosphonate compounds, it should be handled with care due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns associated with phosphonate derivatives.
