Methylphosphonic acid
Methylphosphonic acid is an organophosphorus compound with the chemical formula. CH3P(O)(OH)2. The phosphorus center is tetrahedral and is bonded to a methyl group, two OH groups and an oxygen. Methylphosphonic acid is a white, non-volatile solid that is poorly soluble in organic solvent but soluble in water and common alcohols.[2]

Preparation
Methylphosphonic acid can be prepared via the Michaelis-Arbuzov reaction from triethylphosphite:[3]
- CH3Cl + P(OC2H5)3 → CH3PO(OC2H5)2 + C2H5Cl
The dialkylphosphonate is then treated with chlorotrimethylsilane:
- CH3PO(OC2H5)2 + 2 Me3SiCl → CH3PO(OSiMe3)2 + 2 C2H5Cl
The siloxyphosphinate is then hydrolyzed:
- CH3PO(OSiMe3)2 + 2H2O → CH3PO(OH)2 + 2 HOSiMe3
gollark: Again. You are making fundamental mistakes which should probably be corrected or you'll run into problems.
gollark: It isn't. You are using the wrong values for a and b.
gollark: They are denying commutative addition.
gollark: <@276128832983924751> Help?!
gollark: Also, you're hilariously wrong.
