ABSTRACT:
A process for preparing N-hydroxyalkylaminomethyl-phosphonic acid or salts thereof which comprises contacting an alkanolamine, formaldehyde and a trialkyl phosphite under suitable reaction conditions to produce a reaction mixture, and hydrolyzing the reaction mixture under neutral, acidic or basic conditions. In one embodiment, the N-hydroxyalkylaminomethylphosphonic acid or salts thereof is catalytically oxidized to produce an N-phosphonomethylaminocarboxylic acid or salts thereof.
