Organophosphate
Organophosphates (also known as phosphate esters) are a class of organophosphorus compounds with the general structure O=P(OR). They can be considered as esters of phosphoric acid. Like most functional groups organophosphates occur in a diverse range of forms, with important examples including key biomolecules such as DNA, RNA and ATP, as well as many insecticides, herbicides, and nerve agents.
Tris(2,4-di-tert-butylphenyl)phosphite
Tris(2,4-di-tert-butylphenyl)phosphite is an organophosphorus compound with the formula [(CH)CHO]P. This white solid is a widely used stabilizer in polymers where it functions as an antioxidant as well as other roles. The compound is a phosphite ester derived from di-tert-butylphenol.
