hypophosphoric acid
Hypophosphoric acid is a mineral acid with the chemical formula H4P2O6 or H3PO2(HPO3), or its derivatives. This condensed phosphoric acid carries both hydronium ions (H+) and the characteristic hypophosphoric anion (H2P2O6^-). It is characterized by its ability to form two types of salts and exist in a solid form as a colorless crystalline substance at room temperature. The compound is a strong reducing agent and can be produced by reacting red phosphorus with nitric acid. However, it is not often encountered due to its instability and reactive nature.
