Phosphinic acid, (1-hydroxyethyl)-, 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl ester

Description:

Phosphinic acid, (1-hydroxyethyl)-, 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl ester, identified by CAS number 88648-01-5, is an organophosphorus compound characterized by its phosphinic acid functional group. This substance typically exhibits properties associated with esters, such as being a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a moderate boiling point. It is soluble in organic solvents and may have limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic alkyl chains. The presence of the hydroxyethyl and methoxyethoxy groups contributes to its potential reactivity and interaction with biological systems, making it of interest in various applications, including agriculture and pharmaceuticals. Additionally, phosphinic acids are known for their role as intermediates in the synthesis of more complex molecules and may exhibit biological activity, such as herbicidal or fungicidal properties. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as organophosphorus compounds can vary widely in toxicity and environmental impact.
