Chemical Properties
Clear colorless liquid
Uses
Tributyl phosphite may be employed as model lubricant additive and its surface chemistry on Fe
3O
4 in ultrahigh vacuum is investigated.
Uses
Tributyl Phosphite inhibits fluoroacetanilide poisoning in mammals.
Uses
Tributyl phosphite may be employed as model lubricant additive and its surface chemistry on Fe3O4 in ultrahigh vacuum is investigated.
General Description
Tributyl phosphite is an alkylphosphite and is reported to inhibit carboxylesterase activity.
Purification Methods
Fractionate the phosphite with an efficient column. It is stable in air but is slowly hydrolysed by H2O. [Gerrard J Chem Soc 1464 1940, Fertig et al. J Chem Soc 1488 1957, Fields J Am Chem Soc 80 2358 1958, Gillis et al. J Am Chem Soc 80 2999 1958, Beilstein 1 IV 1527.]
