摘要 |
A process for preparing polyamino monosuccinic acids, salts or chelates thereof by (a) reacting a maleic or fumaric acid ester or mixtures thereof with a polyamino compound in a primary alcohol as a solvent, (b) hydrolyzing the product obtained in step (a), and (c) separating the primary alcohol. The use of a primary alcohol as the solvent results in a markedly purer polyamino monosuccinic acid product and simpler reaction conditions than when the solvent is a secondary or tertiary alcohol.
