ATMP or aminotris(methylenephosphonic acid) is a phosphonic acid with chemical formula N(CH 2 PO 3 H 2 ) 3 . It is a colorless solid. Its conjugate bases, such as [N(CH 2 PO 3 H) 3 ] 3- , have chelating properties. ATMP can be synthesized from the Mannich-type reaction of ammonia, formaldehyde, and phosphorous acid, in a manner similar to the Kabachnik–Fields reaction.
