QUICK LINKS

Triethyl phosphate, a trialkyl phosphate, is the ester derivative of phosphoric acid, specifically derived from ethanol. This colorless and corrosive liquid exhibits slow dissolution in water and possesses combustible properties. In scientific applications, triethyl phosphate actively participates in the thermal transformation of sodium acetate-2-C14 to n-butyl acetate-2-C14. This alkyl phosphate has proven utility in various processes due to its unique chemical properties and reactivity. However, caution is advised when handling this substance due to its irritative and combustible nature.
