Trimethyl phosphate is the trimethyl ester of phosphoric acid. It is a colourless, nonvolatile liquid. It has some specialized uses in the production of other compounds.[1]

Transcription

Production

Trimethyl phosphate is prepared by treating phosphorus oxychloride with methanol in the presence of an amine base:

POCl3 + 3 CH3OH + 3 R3N → PO(OCH3)3 + 3 R3NH+Cl−

It is a tetrahedral molecule that is a weakly polar solvent.

Applications

Trimethyl phosphate is a mild methylating agent, useful for dimethylation of anilines and related heterocyclic compounds.[2] The method is complementary to the traditional Eschweiler-Clarke reaction in cases where formaldehyde engages in side reactions.

Trimethyl phosphate is used as a solvent for aromatic halogenations and nitrations as required for the preparation of pesticides and pharmaceuticals.

Other applications

It is used as a color inhibitor for fibers (e.g. polyester) and other polymers. Trimethyl phosphate is used as a simulant for chemical weapon nerve agents.[citation needed]

Safety considerations

With an LD50 of 2g/kg for rats, trimethylphosphate is expected to have low acute toxicity.[3]
