Application

Trimethyl phosphite is an organophosphorus ester with flame retardant property. It is generally used as a ligand to form coordinate complexes with transition metals.Some of its other applications include:For N-alkylation of amino-9,10-anthraquinones in imidazolium-based ionic liquids without the use of base and highly polar organic solvents. To synthesize dimethyl phenylphosphonate by reacting with phenyl radical generated by the thermal decomposition of phenylazotriphenylmethane (PAT).To synthesize aryl phosphonates via P-arylation reaction with silyl triflates.
