Synthesis of Ethylenediamine tetramethylene phosphonic acid (EDTMP) chelating agent and investigation of its complex formation with iron and calcium metals for use in agriculture

Abstract

   In this study, the synthesis of ethylenediamine tetramethylene phosphonic acid (EDTMP) chelate was investigated. Due to its unique properties, including the ability to form stable complexes with metal ions, this compound finds applications in various industries, particularly in agriculture.   The research evaluates the synthesis method of ethylenediamine tetramethylene phosphonic acid and examines the effects of reaction factors such as reaction time and precursor concentration on synthesis efficiency. Additionally, the structural and chemical characteristics of the final product have been analysed using spectroscopic technique FT-IR and UV-VIS.
