The invention provides a process for producing mixtures of glyoxylic acid and aminomethylphosphonic acid. The process comprises reacting glycolic acid and oxygen in an aqueous solution in the presence of aminomethylphosphonic acid catalyst consisting of glycolate oxidase and catalase. The resulting mixtures are useful intermediates in the production of N-(phosphonomethyl)glycine.

A invenção fornece um processo produzindo misturas do ácido glyoxylic e do ácido aminomethylphosphonic. O processo compreende reagir o ácido e o oxigênio glycolic em uma solução aqueous na presença do oxidase e do catalase consistindo do glycolate do catalizador ácido aminomethylphosphonic. As misturas resultantes são intermediários úteis na produção de N-(phosphonomethyl)glycine.
