Abstract

Abstract The novel compound 1,4-diisopropyl-2,5-diketo­piperazine can be hydrolytically cleaved to prepare N-isopropylglycine, which can be reacted with formal­dehyde and phosphorous acid to produce N-isopropyl-N­phosphonomethylglycine. The latter compound can be dealkylated in the presence of base to produce N-phos­phonomethylglycine, a well known herbicide.
