Description

2-Diethoxyphosphorylethyl Dodecanoate is a specialized organophosphorus ester compound, CAS NO 5463-13-8, valued for its unique bifunctional chemical structure. This combination of a phosphonate group and a long-chain laurate ester makes it a versatile intermediate and functional additive in advanced chemical synthesis. It is primarily sought by R&D chemists and process engineers in the agrochemical, polymer, and specialty chemical industries for applications requiring tailored surface activity or specific reactivity.

Application

• Agrochemical Intermediate: A key building block in the synthesis of novel organophosphorus pesticides, herbicides, and plant growth regulators.
• Polymer Additive: Acts as a plasticizer, flame retardant synergist, or internal lubricant in PVC, polyurethanes, and other specialty polymer formulations.
• Surface Modification Agent: Used to impart hydrophobicity, corrosion resistance, or specific adhesion properties to metal, glass, or composite surfaces.
• Lubricant & Grease Formulation: Serves as an extreme pressure (EP) additive or friction modifier in synthetic lubricants and industrial greases.
• Chemical Synthesis Intermediate: Utilized in organic synthesis for introducing phosphonate and ester functionalities into target molecules for pharmaceuticals or fine chemicals.
• Surfactant & Emulsifier Precursor: A precursor for synthesizing specialized anionic surfactants with unique emulsifying and dispersing properties.
