Procedure

A suitable reaction vessel is charged with 3.94 grams (0.02 mole) of ethyl N-phosphonomethylglycinate in 15 ml. of water. While cooling below about 15° C. in an icebath, 50% aqueous sodium hydroxide is added to obtain a pH of about 8. There is then added 2.51 grams (0.022 mole) of methylsuccinic anhydride with stirring and continued cooling. Two further 1.0 gram portions of anhydride are added to complete the reaction, the pH being maintained with additional alkali. The reaction mixture is diluted with water and passed through a column of ion exchange resin in the acid form. The first seven 20 ml. cuts are combined in 20 ml. of water, and a further 1.2 gram portion of anhydride is added. The resultant reaction mixture is passed through the column, and the first four 20 ml. cuts are combined and dried. The product is cooled in dry ice to yield N-carbethoxymethyl-N-(phosphonomethyl)-2-methylsuccinamic acid (in the monohydrate form) as a clear glass-gum. Elemental analysis gives 4.01% nitrogen and 9.13% phosphorus as against calculated values of 4.25% and 9.40% for C10H18NO8P.H2O. ##STR18##
