Abstract
A reaction medium of ethanol condensed with 1-20, most preferably 4-6 moles, of ethylene or propylene oxide per mole of ethanol greatly improves the practicality of the preparation of azacycloalkane-2,2-diphosphonic acids of the general formula I: ##STR1## where R means a hydrogen or a lower alkyl radical with from 1 to 3 carbon atoms, and n means an integer between 3 and 11, by phosphonylating the corresponding lactams with phosphonic acid and phosphorous trihalides in the presence of water.
