Abstract
We report the dephosphorylation reactions of the organophosphates diethyl 2,4‐dinitrophenyl phosphate (DEDNPP) and dimethyl 4‐nitrophenyl phosphate (methyl paraoxon) by the oxime 2‐(hydroxyimino)‐N‐phenyl‐acetamide (Ox 1). Rate enhancements of 107‐fold over the rate constant for the spontaneous hydrolysis are observed in aqueous medium in presence of the anionic form of the oxime. Ox 1 represents a new family of nucleophiles which could be used for the degradation of toxic organophosphates. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
