Testing IndicatorsAppearance — Visual inspection; Identification — FTIR (P=S stretch ~600-640 cm⁻¹) and ¹H/³¹P NMR; Purity — HPLC or GC-FID (Area normalization); Melting point — Capillary method (if solid); Moisture — Karl Fischer titration (GB/T 6283).
Storage NotesStore in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from heat. Keep container tightly sealed and stored under inert gas (nitrogen or argon) to prevent oxidation. Refrigeration (sealed, dry) is recommended for long-term stability.
Lead Time10 days
Used as a stable phosphine sulfide ligand in coordination chemistry and organometallic catalysis. Serves as a precursor for the synthesis of other organophosphorus compounds and can be reduced to generate the parent phosphine (Methyldiphenylphosphine) for organic synthesis.
