摘要 |
The present invention relates to a method for producing aminocarboxylates starting from amines using a reaction sequence of ethoxylation to form amino alcohols and subsequent oxidative dehydrogenation to form the corresponding aminocarboxylates, in particular the alkali or alkaline earth salts of the complexing agents MGDA (methylglycinediacetic acid), EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) and GLDA (glutamic acid diacetic acid) or the free acids thereof. |
