Last updated: July 2026 dataDiethyl phosphite (DEP) serves as a key building block in organophosphorus chemistry, with applications spanning pesticide synthesis, lubricant additives, and pharmaceutical intermediates. India is the leading US supplier, followed by China and Germany — a concentration in Asian sources that creates Section 301 exposure for Chinese-origin shipments. All US imports enter under tariff line 2920220000, and buyers should verify certificate-of-analysis specifications against contract purity requirements, as grade variations affect downstream reaction yields.

The two compounds are classified at separate HS6 headings — dimethyl phosphite under 292021 and diethyl phosphite under 292022 — based on the alkyl group attached to the phosphorus ester. The distinction matters because they are distinct chemical entities with different CAS numbers, and misclassification can trigger penalties.
Commercial diethyl phosphite is traded in technical and high-purity pharmaceutical grades. Buyers should specify minimum purity thresholds (commonly 98–99%+) in purchase contracts, as lower-grade material may contain diethyl phosphonate impurities that affect synthesis performance and may require additional customs documentation for certain end uses.
