ABSTRACT
In this work vinyl ester of lactic acid by homogeneous catalytic vinylation of lactic acid with acetylene was synthesized. The influence of temperature, nature of catalysts and the reaction time on the product yield was studied. The process was carried out at a temperature of 80-140 °C for 2 hours by passing acetylene through solution of lactic acid in the DMFA catalyst system. As a catalyst Lewis acids (ZnCl2, AlCl3, FeCl3, AlCl3 and AlCb^^O) 10% by weight of lactic acid were used.

Introduction
Currently various biologically active organic compounds with unique properties are synthesized in the oil and gas industry using modern innovative technologies. On an industrial scale acetylene is obtained by pyrolysis of methane, vinyl acetate production is based on vinylation of acetic acid by acetylene one of the most important raw materials in the chemical industry [1-3].
Many compounds with different properties are synthesized on the basis of carboxylic acids and are widely used in variou fields of industry. In particular, their vinyl esters are used as solvents and in the food industry as flavorings; monomers in the preparation of polymers and as lubricants in the preparation of various materials [4]. In this direction acetic acid is sufficiently studied and produced in industrial scale. But the reaction of vinylation of compounds contained simultaneously in their molecules hydroxyl and carboxyl groups by acetylene has not been studied. There are several ways of obtain vinyl esters, among them the most technologically and cost-effective is catalytic vinylation of some organic acids in homogeneous and heterogeneous conditions [5].
2-Hydroxypropionic acid (lactic acid-CH3-CH(OH)-COOH) is a natural, widespread substance, wich can be obtained by fermentation or chemical synthesis [6]. It's production is 40,000 tons per year and it is widely used as a food product, plant growth regulator, environmentally friendly "green" solvent, biodegradable polymers and special chemical intermediate [7]. Currently lactic acid and it's polymers are produced globally by large American companies such as Cargill, Ecochem and Archer Daniels Midland [8].
In this paper, the process of vinylation of lactic acid by homogeneous catalytic method was investigated. The influence of the catalyst nature, temperature and duration on the reaction on it's processing and yield of product has been investigated.
II. EXPERIMENTAL
Synthesis of vinyl ester of lactic acid. In four-neck flask by volume of 200 ml, equipped with a fridge, thermometer, tube for introduction of acetylene and mixer 100 ml of the solvent dimethylformamide (DMFA); 1.8 g (0.2 mol) of lactic acid; 0.18 g of zinc acetate (10% by mass of lactic acid) and 0.018 g
AlCl3^6H2O (10% by mass of zinc acetate) have been playced.
The reaction mixture was heated in a thermostat to temperature 80 °C. Acetylene was introduced through a tube with constant stirring. The acetylene feed rate was controlled via a foam flowmeter. Two hours later the reaction was stopped and after cooling the reaction mixture was distilled in a vacuum (10-15 mm Hg. C.) in the presence of 0.002 g of hydroquinone (inhibitor) at this vinyl ester of lactic acid was obtained 1.32 g (57% yield) with boiling point 83-85 °C. Reaction was carried out by this method at different durations and temperatures. Zinc acetate+Lewis acid: ZnCl2, AlCl3, FeCl3, AlCl3 and AlC^6H2O were used as catalysts.
III. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Vinylation of lactic acid by homogeneous-catalytic method was work carried out. The influence of the catalyst nature and temperature on the process was studied. The reaction was carried out in a dimethylformamide (DMF) solution in the presence of catalysts: zinc acetate and 10% Lewis acids ZnCl2, AlCl3, FeCl3, AlCl3 and AlC^^^O relative to it's mass. The process was carried out at a temperature of 80-140 °C for 2 hours in the DMFA catalyst system by passing acetylene through the reaction mass. The reaction scheme is as follows:

Analysis of the results has shown that the temperature in the range of 80-140 °C has a great influence on the process of vinylation of lactic acid. In all cases the vinyl ester of lactic acid is formed and it's
yield has depended on the composition of catalyst and temperature of process. In range of temperature 80 to 120 °C the product yield increases from 24 to 75%, further increasing temperature leads it's decreasing.
But along with the increasing in product yield, it was observed a slight decomposition of DMFA in the acetylene flow at temperature above 120 °C. Also, due to the vinyl group the formation of oligomeric compounds is observed, what has reduced the yield of the product. The optimal temperature of the process with the participation of AlCls^^O is 120 °C. and at this yield of vinyl ester was equaled 75%. Therefore
further investigation were carried out at this temperature.
Analysis of the results of the study on the effect of the duration of the reaction on the formation of vinyl ester of lactic acid show has that with the increasing duration of the reaction, the product yield has increased. In the presence of the catalyst AlCl3^6H2O vinyl ester yield with increasing reaction time in the range of 1-4 hours has increased from 54.0 to 86.8%.

It was established that in addition to the main product the catalysate has contained a significant amount of the initial substance-lactic acid. Its separation, cleaning and re-introduction to the reaction has increased the overall yield of the product. A further increasing duration of the reaction adversely affects on yield of vinyl ester. The optimal conditions for the process are: reaction time 4 hours; catalyst AlCl3^6H2O and at this the yield of vinyl ester was 86.8%.
VI. CONCLUSION AND FUTURE WORK Vinylation of 2-hydroxypropanoic acid (lactic acid) with acetylene in the presence of zinc acetate catalysts and metal chlorides: zinc, chromium, iron (III) and aluminum has been investigated. It was found the optimal conditions for the synthesis of vinyl ester of
lactic acid are: the reaction time 4 hours, the catalyst-zinc acetate and AlCl3-6H2O. The yield of the resulting vinyl ester was 87%.

1. ВВЕДЕНИЕ
Человечество использует природные ископаемые как источники энергии и огромное количество вырабатывается за счет сжигания нефти, газа и каменного угля. Естественным побочным продуктом их сжигания является диоксид углерода - парниковый газ, который негативно влияет на климат нашей планеты. С каждым днем становится более острой проблема утилизации СО2. В то же время в промышленности перерабатывается всего около 100 млн.тонн диоксида углерода, что составляет меньше 0,5% от всего объема выбросов [2,14].
Вовлечение СО2 в химические реакции и синтез различных производных карбоновых кислот, лактонов, поликарбонатов и циклических карбонатов является одним из основных вариантов его утилизации [5]. Среди них циклические карбонаты особенно интересны в связи с их применением в качестве электролитов для литий-ионных батарей, а также промежуточных соединений для синтеза различных химических соединений полимеров [2, 3].
Для реакции СО2 с эпоксидами, в основном, используют кислоты Льюиса или Бренстеда. В большинстве случаев скорость реакции резко возрастает в присутствии нуклеофильных добавок - сокатализаторов, таких как амины, галогенид-анионы и т.п. Сегодня в распоряжении химиков имеется значительное количество каталитических систем, используемых в синтезе циклических карбонатов. Почти все каталитические системы, используемые в настоящее время для синтеза циклических карбонатов, можно отнести к одной из двух больших групп: в первую входят металлокатализаторы, то есть соли или комплексы металлов; вторую составляют органокатализаторы, в качестве которых чаще всего используются фосфониевые и аммониевые соли, а также спирты и фенолы. Большинство известных катализаторов имеет существенные недостатки, среди которых выделяются низкая устойчивость или активность, необходимость использования сокатализатора, высокая стоимость [8].
Поэтому, поиск и разработка принципиально новых, дешевых и «зелёных» каталитических
