2-chloroethyl phosphoric acid, abbreviated as CEPA, also known as ethephon, is one of the plant regulators with the same effect as ethylene. 2-chloroethyl phosphoric acid is a versatile and widely used organophosphorus compound in various industries. 2-chloroethyl phosphoric acid is primarily known for its application as a plant growth regulator and a ripening agent in agriculture, but it also finds uses in various other fields, such as textiles, rubber, and pharmaceuticals.
features:
Soluble in water, alcohol, acetone, insoluble in benzene, insoluble in petroleum ether. It is easily deliquescent in the air, and its aqueous solution is strongly acidic. It is stable under acidic conditions of pH<3, and emits ethylene under pH>3 and alkaline conditions.
Adhibition:
Organophosphate plant production regulator. Phytohormone has the physiological effects of promoting milk secretion, accelerating maturation, shedding, aging and promoting flowering. Under certain conditions, it can not only release ethylene itself, but also induce plants to produce ethylene.
