A process for the manufacture of alkali metal and alkaline earth metal salts of L-ascorbic acid 2-monophosphate comprises reacting a L--ascorbic acid 2-polyphosphate under alkaline conditions with an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salt of L-ascorbic acid in concentrated aqueous solution, the amounts of the L-ascorbic acid salt and the alkaline earth metal hydroxide used as the base being arranged such that pH value of the reaction medium is held in the range of about 8 to about 11 and a stepwise transfer of in each case one phosphate group from the polyphosphate to the L-ascorbic acid salt takes place until essentially the polyphosphate has been consumed and only L-ascorbic acid 2-monophosphate salt is present. Preferably, the L--ascorbic acid 2-polyphosphate is produced in situ and calcium hydroxide is used as the base. Independently of whether the L-ascorbic acid 2--polyphosphate is produced separately or in situ, sodium trimetaphosphate is preferably used as the phosphorylating agent. A further aspect of the present invention comprises spray drying the mixture obtained after completion of the reaction, cooling and dilution to a suitable viscosity. The product of the process according to the invention is suitable as an additive for human and animal foodstuffs; it is especially stable against oxidative and thermal degradation and has an especially high content of L-ascorbic acid monophosphate vis-à-vis polyphosphates and is accordingly primarily of use preferably for the nutritional enrichment of fish feed.
