Abstract

2-(Meth)acrylamido-2-methylpropanephosphonic acid is prepared by reaction of 2-methylprop-1-ene-1-phosphonic acid or 2-methylpro-2-ene-1-phosphonic acid with (meth)acrylonitrile in the presence of an equimolar amount of a strong acid. The compounds are suitable as such or in the form of their salts as comonomer for the manufacture of copolymers, which are used inter alia as dyeing auxiliaries and as scale inhibitors.
