PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF A CRYSTALLINE L-MGDA TRIALKALI METAL SALT

A process is proposed for the preparation of a crystalline L-MGDA trialkali metal salt by crystallization from an aqueous solution thereof which has been obtained by Strecker synthesis, starting from L-α-alanine, by reaction with formaldehyde and hydrocyanic acid to give L-α-alanine-N,N-diacetonitri...

Zusammenfassung:A process is proposed for the preparation of a crystalline L-MGDA trialkali metal salt by crystallization from an aqueous solution thereof which has been obtained by Strecker synthesis, starting from L-α-alanine, by reaction with formaldehyde and hydrocyanic acid to give L-α-alanine-N,N-diacetonitrile and subsequent alkaline saponification of the L-α-alanine-N,N-diacetonitrile to give the L-MGDA trialkali metal salt, wherein a temperature of 150° C. is not exceeded during the alkaline saponification.
