Diethyl methylthiomethylphosphonate, is used as an important raw material and intermediate used in organic Synthesis, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and dyestuff. Diethyl(methylthiomethyl) phosphonate is a reactant for the synthesis of (+)-minfiensine via organocatalytic Diels-Alder/amine cyclization and 6-exo-dig radical cyclization. It is used in the preparation of fused nitrogen, sulfur, and phosphorus containing heterocyclic and relevant difurylpyridazine phosphonates with antimicrobial activity. It is also used as a reactant used in the preparation of fused heterocyclic.
