ATMP or aminotris(methylenephosphonic acid) is a phosphonic acid with chemical formula N(CH2PO3H2)3. It is a colorless solid. Its conjugate bases, such as [N(CH2PO3H)3]3-, have chelating properties.

ATMP can be synthesized from the Mannich-type reaction of ammonia, formaldehyde, and phosphorous acid, in a manner similar to the Kabachnik–Fields reaction.[1][2]

Properties

[edit]

ATMP has good antiscale performance.[3][4] It is related structurally to nitrilotriacetic acid.[5]

Applications

[edit]
[edit]
  • (1-Aminoethylidene)bisphosphonic acid, CH3C(NH2)[PO(OH)2]2, also a chelating agent
  • Etidronic acid, CH3C(OH)[PO(OH)2]2, also a chelating agent
  • Glyphosate, HO2CCH2NHCH2[PO(OH)2]2, a herbicide
