Description

Dimethyl phosphite is a triple-quadrupole mass spectrometry (QMS) technique that is used to identify inorganic acids and their corresponding anions. It can be used for wastewater treatment, as it converts hydrochloric acid into chloride ions. Dimethyl phosphite reacts with hydrophobic substances such as methyl ketones and carbonyl groups, which results in the release of water vapor. The reaction mechanism of dimethyl phosphite is acidolysis, which involves the addition of water molecules to the carbonyl group to form an enol. This process releases energy that is then converted into heat. Dimethyl phosphite has been shown not to be carcinogenic in animal studies.
