Abstract

The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of diesters of poly (ethylene glycol) by reacting poly (oxyalkylene glycol) and amino acid hydrochloride in the presence of a condensing agent in a suitable solvent at a temperature in the range of 0° C. to room temperature for a period ranging between 1 hour to 24 hours. The reaction mixture is then filtered and the filtrate poured into another solvent, which is a nonsolvent for the products. The products precipitated thereby are then isolated.
