Participants

Reaction Steps

4-Phenoxybutylaminomethylenebisphosphonic acid (0.54 g) was suspended in methanol (20 ml), to which was added a methanol solution of sodium methoxide (28%, 0.782 g), and the mixture was stirred for 3 hours at room temperature. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. The concentrate was treated with acetone to give a solid matter, which was recrystallized from water-methanol to give 4-phenoxybutylaminomethylenebisphosphonic acid disodium salt 1.5 hydrate (0.56 g, 85%), m.p.>300° C.
