Dibenzyl phosphite is used for the phosphorylation of phenols involves reaction in the presence of N-ethyldiisopropylamine and DMAP to give the dibenzyl phenyl phosphate. It is used in the preparation of phenylalkylphosphonamidates which are then used as probes for a hydrophobic binding register in prostate-specific membrane antigen.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
