Triethyl phosphate is a versatile phosphate ester compound. Triethyl phosphate induces rapid and short-acting anesthesia, and exhibits hypotensive, smooth muscle relaxant, and cardiac inhibitory effects. Triethyl phosphate also modulates cholinergic toxicity; its anesthetic effect shows sex- and age-dependency in rodents, and it interacts with SKF 525-A to alter the duration of anesthesia
