What Is Triisopropyl phosphite?
Triisopropyl phosphite (CAS 116-17-6) is the triisopropyl ester of phosphorous acid (P(III)). Molecular formula C9H21O3P; molecular weight about 208.24 g/mol. Always match CAS 116-17-6 on the batch COA.
ChemicalBook and supplier literature describe it as a versatile organophosphorus reagent and intermediate: insecticide intermediate supply, vinyl-stabilizer component, lubricant additive and specialty solvent applications, as well as Perkow-type and related phosphonate / phosphite chemistry. It is moisture-sensitive. Monuo Chemical supplies Triisopropyl phosphite as a specialty chemical raw material under Custom synthesis, with batch identity documentation (COA / SDS). Finished-product claims, labeling and local regulatory filings remain the brand manufacturer’s responsibility. Confirm grade and assay against the batch COA for your intended method.
