Procedure

The imine from benzaldehyde and benzylamine (65 g; 0.33 mole) was added to phosphorous acid (27.3 g; 0.33 mole) and the mixture stirred with heating. As the temperature reached 95°-100° the whole mixture became a homogeneous liquid which reacted vigorously as the temperature reached 115°-120°. The reaction mass became very viscous and was allowed to cool to a glass. This glass was dissolved in aqueous sodium carbonate and upon acidification gave N-benzyl α-aminobenzylphosphonic acid, mp 233°-4°, 90 g. ##STR29##
