ethyl methylphosphonate

Description:

Ethyl methylphosphonate (EMP) is an organophosphorus compound characterized by its chemical structure, which includes a phosphonate group. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a faint odor and is known for its high solubility in polar organic solvents. EMP is primarily recognized for its use as a chemical intermediate in the synthesis of various organophosphorus compounds and as a potential precursor in the production of chemical agents. The compound exhibits moderate toxicity and can act as a cholinesterase inhibitor, which is a common feature among organophosphorus compounds. Its boiling point and density are typical for similar organophosphonates, and it is stable under normal conditions but can decompose under extreme heat or in the presence of strong acids or bases. EMP is also subject to regulations due to its potential use in chemical warfare, making its handling and disposal a matter of concern in both industrial and laboratory settings. Proper safety measures should be observed when working with this substance.

Ethyl methylphosphonate is a chemical with the molecular formula CH 3 OP(OCH 2 CH 3 ) and is an ester of methylphosphonic acid. It is used in organic synthesis as a reagent for the introduction of the ethyl group into alkenes. This compound has been shown to inhibit the activity of fatty acid synthase, which is an enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of fatty acids from acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA. The LC-MS/MS method has been developed for analysis of ethyl methylphosphonate in human serum and plasma samples. The detection sensitivity was found to be 0.5 ng/mL with a limit of quantitation at 1 ng/mL, while the limit of detection was 3 ng/mL. Regression analysis data showed that ethyl methylphosphonate concentration in human serum increases linearly with time after exposure, while kinetic data showed that it takes 5 minutes for 50%
