| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
Monomethyl phosphate is a useful building block and byproduct of the degradation of black phosphorous in protic solvents. | [Definition]
ChEBI: A monoalkyl phosphate epitope having methyl as the alkyl group. | [General Description]
Clear very light amber liquid. | [Air & Water Reactions]
Water soluble. | [Reactivity Profile]
Susceptible to formation of highly toxic and flammable phosphine gas in the presence of strong reducing agents such as hydrides. Partial oxidation by oxidizing agents may result in the release of toxic phosphorus oxides. Can be neutralized with alkalis or amines to give water-soluble salts. | [Health Hazard]
ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: When heated to decomposition methyl dihydrogen phosphate emits toxic fumes of phosphorous oxides. | [Fire Hazard]
methyl dihydrogen phosphate is probably combustible. |
