Process for preparing one or more complexing agents selected from methylglycinediacetic acid, glutamic acid diacetic acid and salts thereofProcess for preparing one or more complexing agents selected from methylglycinediacetic acid, glutamic acid diacetic acid and salts thereof by catalytic dehydrogenation of N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)alanine and/or N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)glutamic acid and/or salts thereof in the presence of alkali metal hydroxide, where a catalyst comprising copper and zirconium dioxide is used, the activation of which is a reduction, wherein the precursor of the catalyst in question has a degree of crystallization K, defined as K = I K · 100 I K + I A , in the range from 0 to 50%.
摘要:
A process for preparing aminopolycarboxylates proceeding from the corresponding polyalkanolamines by oxidative dehydrogenation in the presence of a catalyst comprising 1 to 90% by weight of copper, based on the total weight of the catalyst, using a base, which comprises first performing a partial conversion of the polyalkanolamine to a reaction mixture comprising the aminopolycarboxylate at a temperature in the range from 140 to 180° C. until at least 10 to 90 mol% of the polyalkanolamine has been depleted, and then continuing the conversion at elevated temperature.
