TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), a measured Koc range of 3.7 to 15 for the analogous sodium hypophosphite (which dissociates into the hypophosphorus acid ion in water)(2) indicates that hypophosphorus acid is expected to have very high mobility in soil(SRC). The pKa of hypophosphorous acid is 2.27(3), indicating that this compound will exist almost entirely in ionized form in the environment(SRC). Since ionized forms do not volatilize, volatilization from moist soil is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC). Hypophosphorous acid is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon a vapor pressure of 0.00323 mm Hg at 25 °C(3). Biodegradation data in soil were not available(SRC, 2017).

AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), a measured Koc range of 3.7 to 15 for the analogous sodium hypophosphite (which dissociates into the hypophosphorus acid ion in water)(2) indicates that hypophosphorus acid is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). The pKa of hypophosphorous acid is 2.27(3), indicating that this compound will exist almost entirely in ionized form in the environment(SRC). Since ionized forms do not volatilize, volatilization from water surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC). According to a classification scheme(4), an estimated BCF of 3(SRC), from an estimated log Kow of -1.72(5) and a regression-derived equation(5), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). Biodegradation data in water were not available(SRC, 2017). Based on hydrolysis results for sodium hypophosphite(2), hypophosphorus acid is stable to hydrolysis in water(3).

ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), hypophosphorus acid, which has a vapor pressure of 0.00323 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase hypophosphorus acid may be degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC); however, the half-life for this reaction in air can not be estimated appropriately with current estimation methods since hypophosphorus acid in an inorganic compound(3). Hypophosphorus acid is miscible in water(4), therefore, atmospheric hypophosphorus acid may dissolve in precipitation, cloud or fog water and be removed from air via wet deposition(SRC).

IDENTIFICATION AND USE: Hypophosphorous acid is used in preparation of hypophosphites, and in electroplating baths. HUMAN STUDIES: Hypophosphorous acid solution (50%) was corrosive in a standardized and quantitative in vitro corrosivity test. ANIMAL STUDIES: There are no data available.

Using OECD Guideline 106 (Adsorption - Desorption Using a Batch Equilibrium Method) and five different soil types, sodium hypophosphite had Koc values ranging from 3.7 to 15(1). Since sodium hypophosphite dissociates into hypophosphorus acid ions in water(1), the Koc results will also apply to hypophosphorus acid(2). According to a classification scheme(3), these Koc values suggests that hypophosphorous acid is expected to have very high mobility in soil.

/ALTERNATIVE and IN VITRO TESTS/ The Corrositex assay is a standardized and quantitative in vitro corrosivity test. The potential corrosivity of the test item was assessed by measuring the time that is required for the test item to pass through a biobarrier membrane and produce a change in a Chemical Detection System (CDS). 4 vials of 50% Hypophosphorous acid solution used in the test. According to the results (average breakthrough point: 12 min 05 sec) the substance is considered to be corrosive. ...

Hypophosphorus acid's production and use in electroplating baths, in the preparation of hypophosphites(1) and as a bleaching agent, reducing agent and catalyst(2) may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams(SRC). Hypophosphorus acid is on the US DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration) list of special surveillance chemicals used in clandestine drug manufacture(3).

An estimated BCF of 3 was calculated in fish for hypophosphous acid(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of -1.72(1) and a regression-derived equation(1). According to a classification scheme(2), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).

The pKa of hypophosphorous acid is 2.27(1), indicating that this compound will exist almost entirely in ionized form in the environment(SRC). Since ionized forms do not volatilize, volatilization from water surfaces or moist soil is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC). Hypophosphorous acid is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon a vapor pressure of 0.00323 mm Hg at 25 °C(1).

Sodium hypophosphite dissociates into hypophosphorus acid ions in water(1). Using OECD Guideline 111 (Hydrolysis as a Function of pH), sodium hypophosphite showed very minor hydrolytic degradation at pH values of 4.0, 7.0 and 9.0 and 50 °C(1). The estimated hydrolysis half-life is greater than one year under representative environmental conditions at 25 °C; therefore, sodium hypophosphite is considered to be hydrolytically stable(1). This should also apply to hypophosphorus acid(SRC).

According to the 2012 TSCA Inventory Update Reporting data, 2 reporting facilities estimate the number of persons reasonably likely to be exposed during the manufacturing, processing, or use of hypophosphorous acid in the United States may be as low as <10 workers and as high as 25-49 workers per plant; the data may be greatly underestimated due to confidential business information (CBI) or unknown values(1).

NIOSH (NOES Survey 1981-1983) has statistically estimated that 14,405 workers (2,961 of these are female) were potentially exposed to hypophosphorous acid in the US(1). Occupational exposure to hypophosphorous acid may occur through inhalation and dermal contact with this compound at workplaces where hypophosphorous acid is produced or used(SRC). Exposure to the general population may be possible in the vicinity of its use as a reagent during illicit drug manufacture. Hypophosphorous acid is on the US DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration) list of special surveillance chemicals used in clandestine drug manufacture(2).

Hypophosphorus acid's production and use in electroplating baths, in the preparation of hypophosphites and as a bleaching agent, reducing agent and catalyst may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams. If released to air, a vapor pressure of 0.00323 mm Hg at 25 °C indicates hypophosphorus acid will exist solely as a vapor in the atmosphere. Vapor-phase hypophosphorus acid will be degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals; the half-life for this reaction in air can not be estimated appropriately with current estimation methods. Hypophosphorus acid is miscible in water, and therefore, may dissolve in precipitation, cloud or fog water and be removed from air via wet deposition. If released to soil, hypophosphorus acid is expected to have very high mobility based upon a measured Koc range of 3.7 to 15 for the analogous sodium hypochorite. The pKa of hypophosphorous acid is 2.27, indicating that this compound will exist almost entirely in ionized form in the environment. Since ionized forms do not volatilize, volatilization from moist soil is not expected to be an important fate process. Hypophosphorus acid is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces based upon its vapor pressure. If released into water, hypophosphorus acid is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment based upon the Koc. Biodegradation data in water or soil were not available. Volatilization from water surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process since the compound ionizes in water. An estimated BCF of 3 suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low. Based on hydrolysis results for sodium hypophosphite, hypophosphorus acid is stable to hydrolysis in water.

Non-confidential 2016 Chemical Data Reporting (CDR) information on the production and use of chemicals manufactured or imported into the United States. Chemical: Phosphinic acid:

Commercially, phosphinic acid and its salts are manufactured by treatment of white phosphorus with a boiling slurry of lime. The desired product, calcium phosphinite, remains in solution and insoluble calcium phosphite is precipitated. Phosphine and hydrogen are also formed, the gas-containing sufficient diphosphine to make it spontaneously flammable. Under some conditions equal amounts of phosphorus appear as phosphine and as phosphite, and the volume of the hydrogen liberated is nearly proportional to the hypophosphite that forms. In addition, a small amount of decomposition of hypophosphite by alkali occurs. Excess calcium hydroxide is precipitated using carbon dioxide and the calcium carbonate, calcium hydroxide, and calcium phosphite are removed by filtration. The filtered solution is treated with an equivalent amount of sodium sulfate or sodium carbonate to precipitate calcium sulfate or carbonate. Sodium hypophosphite monohydrate is recovered upon concentration of the solution. Phosphinic acid is produced from the sodium salt by ion exchange.

Heating concentrated baryta water with white phosphorous and decomposing the barium hypophosphite with sulfuric acid, filtering the liquid, and concentrating under reduced pressure.

Conveniently prepared by treating /sodium hypophosphite/ with an ion-exchange resin.
