2-Chloroethylphosphonic acid dialkylesters (bis-(2-chloroethyl), dimethyl, diethyl, dipropyl, dibutyl and dipentylesters) were hydrolyzed in order to obtain 2-chloroethylphosphonic acid, used as a plant growth regulator. Experiments were made in neutral or acid conditions, in order to find optimal conditions for esters hydrolysis. The obtained 2-chloroethylphosphonic acid was tested, regarding its biological activity, on melon, cucumber, blackcurrant and bilberry.
