The present invention relates to a novel solid form of 4-[[(6-chloropyridin-3-)methyl](2,2-difluoroethyl)amino]furan-2(5H)-one, to processes for its preparation and to its use in agrochemical preparations.

Solid form of 4-[[(6-chloropyridin-3-yl)methyl](2,2-difluoroethyl)amino]furan-2(5H)-one

The present invention relates to a novel solid form of 4-[[(6-chloropyridin-3-yl)methyl](2,2-difluoroethyl)amino]furan-2(5H)-one, to processes for its preparation and to its use in agrochemical preparations.

The invention relates to a process for the preparation of iminodisuccinic acid ammonium metal salts, characterized in that, in a first stage, maleic anhydride (MA), alkali metal hydroxide and water are mixed in the molar ratio of 2:0&#x2013;3:5&#x2013;30 and then ammonia is metered in in the ratio MA: ammonia 2:1.5&#x2013;8, in order to obtain iminodisuccinic acid ammonium salts which, in a second stage, are reacted with metal oxides, metal hydroxides (and) or other metal salts or their mixtures to give iminodisuccinic acid ammonium metal salts of the formula 8,IDA(NH)(Na)(K)(Me).(NH)Formula 8in which
