N-(2-nitrophenyl)phosphoric triamide is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Its specific function may vary between products. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.
N-(2-Nitrophenyl)phosphoric triamide is an organophosphorus compound featuring a nitro-substituted phenyl ring attached to a phosphoric triamide scaffold. The 2-nitrophenyl group is a well-known structural alert in aromatic toxicity, associated with methaemoglobin formation and oxidative stress. The combined hazard profile — reprotoxicity (H360), acute oral and dermal toxicity (H302, H312), skin/eye/respiratory irritation (H315, H319, H332, H335), specific organ toxicity (H373), and aquatic hazard (H412) — makes this compound completely unsuitable for cosmetic use. No EU CosIng entry or safety assessment exists for this ingredient.
