No.
Sarin is (RS)-Propan-2-yl methylphosphonofluoridate
VX is O-ethyl S-[2-(diisopropylamino)ethyl] methylphosphonothioate.They are both acetylcholinesterase inhibitors, but they’re not the same.
They filled the same battlefield role, in the spectrum of irritant—blister agent—blood agent—nerve agent.
