Phosphonic acid, [(3-fluorophenyl)methyl]-, diethyl ester

Description:

Phosphonic acid, [(3-fluorophenyl)methyl]-, diethyl ester, with the CAS number 63909-57-9, is an organophosphorus compound characterized by the presence of a phosphonic acid functional group and two ethyl ester groups. This compound features a 3-fluorophenyl group, which contributes to its unique chemical properties and potential biological activity. The presence of the fluorine atom can enhance lipophilicity and influence the compound's reactivity and interaction with biological systems. Typically, phosphonic acids and their esters exhibit properties such as moderate to high solubility in organic solvents and varying degrees of stability under different pH conditions. They may also demonstrate potential applications in agriculture as herbicides or fungicides, as well as in pharmaceuticals due to their ability to mimic phosphate esters. The diethyl ester form suggests that the compound can undergo hydrolysis to release the phosphonic acid, which may be relevant for its biological activity and environmental behavior. Overall, this compound's structure and functional groups make it a subject of interest in both synthetic and applied chemistry.
