The invention discloses a preparation method of diethyl methylphosphonite, aiming to solve the problem that in the existing method, when ammonia gas is used as the acid-binding agent, the pH value of the reaction solution needs to be controlled between 7.0-8.5, accurately It is very difficult to control the pH value, and when the pH value is lower than that, a large amount of ethyl methylphosphinate by-products will be generated, and the use of organic amines as acid-binding agents has high toxicity, high price, and cumbersome recovery process. The problem of low recovery rates. The present invention uses methyl phosphine dichloride, ethanol and calcium oxide as main raw materials to prepare diethyl methyl phosphinate, which is a lower-cost diethyl methyl phosphonite suitable for industrial production. Methods of Esters Preparation. In the preparation of diethyl methylphosphonite, the present invention uses cheap calcium oxide instead of ammonia or organic amine as the acid-binding agent for the first time, which effectively reduces the production cost, and the calcium oxide is non-toxic, environmentally friendly, and has relatively Good economic value and social value.
