Abstract

Abstract Dicarboxylic acids having the formula WHEREIN R1 represents a phenylene or alkylene radical and R2 represents a divalent organic radical, are prepared by reacting a tricarboxylic acid having the formula HOOCR1N(CH2COOH)2, such as nitrilotriacetic acid, with a diamine having the formula H2NR2NH2, such as hexamethylene diamine, in a substantially 2:1 molar ratio in the presence of an inert solvent. The dicarboxylic acids are useful as monomers in preparing linear film and fiberforming polyamides and polyesters in accordance with conventional methods for preparing such polymers from dicarboxylic acids.
