Introduction
Naphthenate on the basis of petroleum acids, is widely used in the wide range of areas for many purposes - as catalyst in the process of oxidation of carbohydrates, additives to oils and fuels, absorbing fluids in the textile industry, detergent production and etc. [1,2].
Carboxylates of transition metals also are of great importance when used as components in complex catalysts in oligomerization and polymerization processes of olefins [3-6]. There are a lot of studies available on the methods of obtaining zirconyl and zirconium carboxylates from aliphatic carbon [7, 8]. However, there is very low sources of literature related to the obtaining of zirconyl naphtenates based on petroleum acids.
The presented article is devoted to developing a synthesis method of zirconyl naphthenates on the basis of petroleum acids and the investigation of structures of the synthesized complexes.

Experimental section
Petroleum acids separated from Baku oil at 130-160°C, 160-180°C and 180-200°C temperatures (at 2-3 mm Hg) were used for the synthesis of zirconium naphtenates (SN). The physico-chemical parameters of the separated acid are given in the Table 1.
Zirconyl chloride (ZrOCh 8H2O) was purchased from Ukraine (Dneprodjeijinsk) plant and used as a powder without primary purification. ZrOCl2 8H20 contains 0.005% of iron, 0.15% Si and 32% zirconium.
Synthesis of zyrconyl naphtenates from separated petroleum acids were provided according to the common scheme below:
ZrOCl2 8H20+«RC00K^Zr0(RC00)„Cl„,+ hKCI,
n= 1 or 2, m=0 or 1, R - radical of natural petroleum acids.

Potassium naphtenates were synthesized by interaction of KOH in 2 N water solution with fraction of petroleum acids. When the ratio of an alcoholic solution of zirconyl chloride and aqueous solution of potassium salts of petroleum acid fraction was 1:1 mole SN4 was synthesized, and when the ratio was 1:2 mole SN1, SN2, SN3 compounds were synthesized. For this purpose, the calculated amount of ethyl alcohol solution of ZrOCh 8H20 is added to a three-necked flask equipped with a mixer and dropping funnel and it is cooled in iced water bath up to 10-15°C. Then, with intensive mixing, to this solution an aqueous solution of potassium naphtenate droplets was added. Zirconyl naphtenate begins to sediment as white precipitates. After the finishing of adding potassium naphtenate solution, mixing process of the reaction solution continues for 1 hour. Then the precipitate is filtered off through the Buchner funnel at room temperature, separated from water and an alcohol mixture. The precipitate is washed twice with water and alcohol, dried under vacuum at a temperature of 50-60°C up to constant weight.
Zirconyl naphthenates which synthesized on the basis of different fractions of petroleum acids were analysed by IR- and H NMR-spectroscopy, Differential Scanning Calorime-try (DSC), X-ray fluorescence microscopy and element analysis.
NMR spectra were recorded on Bruker pulsing Fourier spectrometer(Germany) operating at the frequency of 300.18 MHz with the use of deuterated chloroform as a solvent.
IR spectra were recorded on the "Bruker" Fourier spectrometer in the range of 400-4000 cm"1 by the "drop" method widespread among KBr prisms.
Diffractograms of the synthesized complexes were drawn out by using an PANalytical EMPYREN X-ray diffractometer produced in the Netherlands.
DSC analysis was carried out on a Ther-moelectron Q-20. Differential scanning calorimeter at a heating rate of 10°C/min in an air or nitrogen atmosphere.
Element distribution of the synthesized zirconyl naphtenates was performed on XGT 7000 X-ray fluorescence microscope of Horiba company (Japan).
Results and Discussion
The yield of the zirconyl napthenates SN1, SN2, SN3 and SN4 syntesized with the above-mentioned method by the interaction of petroleum acid fractions boiling at 130-160°C, 160-180°C and 180-200°C with zirconyl cho-ride at molar ratio of 1:2 and 1:1 are 95.7%, 89.8%, 85.2% and 92.1% respectively. According to the state of aggregation synthesized zirconyl naphthenates are solid products, they dissolve readily in organic solvents (toluene, hex-ane), however, they do not solve in water and alcohol. The thermal properties of the obtained zirconyl naphthenates (SN1, SN2, SN3) were examined by DSC method. It was determined that, the beginning melting temperature of these complexes is varied among 92-114°C. Maximum temperature of these endothermic peaks is 127-145°C and the finishing temperature is 140-162°C. Enthalpy of the process is AH= 1.467-3.360 J/g. Thermooxidation temperature of the synthesized zirconyl naphthenates is between 194-205°C [9].
The IR spectra of the natural petroleum acid fractions boiling at 160-180 and 180— 200°C temperatures (at 3-5 mm Hg) and the zirconyl naphthenates synthesized on the basis of these fractions are given in the Figure la, lb and Figure 2 respectively. As can be seen from the IR spectra of fraction of petroleum acids absorption band at 1705 cm"1 corresponding to the carboxyl group in the acid fraction are observed with high intensity (Figure 1). Absorption bands given below are also observed in IR spectra of these fractions.
- Stretching vibrations at 2922 cm"1, 2951 cm"1 and deformation vibrations at 1412 cm"1, 1455 cm"1 of C-Hbond of CH2 groups.
- Deformation vibrations at 1377 cm"1 and stretching vibrations at 2856 cm"1 of C-H bond of СНз groups.
- Stretching vibrations at 960 cm"1 of C-H bond of CH2 group of naphthenic ring.
- Stretching vibrations at 1226, 1288, 1703 and 2678 cm" corresponding to carboxylic group.
The intensity of absorption bands of carboxyl groups of zirconyl naphthenates SN2, SN3 and SN4 synthesized on the basis of those
fraction is very low (1705 cm"1). This fact proves that obtained zirconyl naphthenates contain traces of free petroleum acids.
As can be seen from Figure 2 synthesized zirconyl napthenates contain absorption bands characteristic for stretching vibrations of Zr=0 and Zr-0 bonds at 463 cm"1, 648 cm"1 and 1045 cm"1.
Furthermore, obtained SN2, SN3 and SN4 zirconyl compounds contain the deformation and stretching vibrations according to absorption bands noted below.
- Deformation vibration at 1440 cm"1 and stretching vibrations at 2919 and 2949 cm"1 of C-H bond of CH2 groups.

The IR spectra of zirconyl naphthanates synthesized in water medium from petroleum acids with boiling temperature of 160-180°C is given in Figure 3. It is clear that in the IR spectra of synthesized zirconyl napthtenates, the intensity of absorption bands 1705 cm"1 of car-boxyl groups of zirconyl napthtenates which synthesized in water medium is by far higher. This proves the fact that obtained zirconyl napthtenate compounds contain free petroleum acids in its composition. Zirconyl napthtenates are solid, not soluble in alcohol and in order to purify it from acids remaining in its composition they should be washed repeatedly with alcohol. According to results of the analyses, synthesis of zirconyl napthtenates in alcohol-water medium is more advantageous than when carried in water medium [7].
H NMR spectra of synthesized zirconyl napthtenates were recorded at room temperature with the use of deutarated chloroform as solvent. H NMR spectra of SN3 zirconyl naphthenate obtained on the basis of petroleum acid with the boiling temperature of 160-180°C is given in Figure 4. As can be seen from the !H NMR spectra a chemical shift is not observed corresponding to the proton of the carboxyl group. In the lU NMR spectra of SN3 chemical shift signals are observed for 0.89 and 1.27 ppm, the methyl and methylene group protons respectively. The resonance signals in the region of 1.4-1.8 ppm refer to naphthenic protons. The resonance signals in the region of 2.05 ppm are related to the first -CH2-group which is directly attached to carboxyl group. At the same time, chemical shift of protons of the aromatic nucleus of very low intensity were observed in the 'H NMR spectra of SN2. Analogical chemical shifts of zirconium napthtenates SN1, SN3 and SN4 synthesized based on petroleum acids with boiling temperature 130— 160°C, 160-180°C and 180-200°C were observed of different intensity in the similar manner to SN2.

The average structural parameters, isopa-raffin index and degree of aromatization of SN3 and SN4 zirconyl napthtenates were calculated according to the method [10] on the basis of average molecular mass values, NMR data and were given in Table 2. As it is clear from the table, zirconyl naphthenates gained on the basis of relatively high-boiling fractions (180— 200°C) contain 1.2% aromatics. The percentage of protons of napthtenic hydrocarbons decreases from 24.6% to 20.5%.
From the source in the literature [1, 11], is known that oil acids extracted from Baku oil contain, condensed bicyclic hydrocarbons consisting in cycles of 5 or 6 members are relatively more (more than 42%). Relatively light fractions contain cyclohexane carboxylic acid and its derivatives. On the basis of information obtained from IR and NMR spectroscopy analysis results about fractional composition and structural parameters of the petroleum acid (Table 2) it has been identified that besides other components, there are condensed naphthenic acids
which contain 5 and 6 membered cycles with common structure below [12].
R = CH3, C2H5 and etc.
X-ray analysis of synthesized zirconyl naphthenates (SN2 and SN3) is carried out and the diffractograms are given on Figure 5. According to the diffractograms of SN2 and SN3, the obtained complexes also contain amorphous segments, as well as peaks characterized by a high intensity of crystalline substance (30-35 0). This is due to the presence of KC1 in the composition of the complex as an additional product. It was found that the synthesized zirconium naphthenates are completely amorphous, as can be seen from the diffractograms recorded after the KC1 is washed with water (Figure 5).

Fig. 6. X-ray fluorescence microscopic images of SN2 zirconyl naphthenate before (6a) and after washing its with water (6b).
The spectra of zirconyl naphthenates SN2 synthesized from petroleum acids with boiling temperature of 160-180°C recorded on X-ray fluorosence microscope before and after washing with water and dried under vacuum are shown on Figure 6a and 6b respectively. As it can be seen from the figures after washing with water the SN2 zirconyl naphthenate, KC1 containing in the composition of the complex is washed away. As seen from the X-ray fluorescence microscopy spectra of SN2 zirconyl naphthenate washed with water does not contain KC1. This is consistent with the results of X-ray analysis.
The results of investigations show that carrying out the synthesis of zirconyl naph-
thenates on the based petroleum acid fractions in the water-alcoholic medium permits to obtain more pure desired product. Therefore, unreacted petroleum acids are removed from the reaction medium as a solution in alcohol, and the obtained zirconyl naphthenate is pure and no additional washing steps are necessary.
The complex catalytic systems consisting of zirconyl naphthenates synthesized on the basis of petroleum acids and alkyl aluminum chlorides ((C2H5)„AlCl3-„) were tested in the oli-gomerization process of ethylene under the mild condition.

70-140°C, under the pressure of ethylene 10-50 atm consists mainly of linear a-olefines with a number of carbons varied among C4—C2o+- Increasing the temperature of the reaction from 70 to 140°C in the presence of SN2 leads to the decrease of butene quantity in the oligomeriza-tion product from 63.04 to 10.7%. Therefore the percentage of C10-C18 fractions accounts for 43.5% when this number for C4-C8 fractions of the product obtained in the temperature of 70°C is 96.2% [13, 14]. It was determined that, it is possible to obtain both oligomers and polymers, depending on the type of aluminum organic compound used as cocatalyst in the presence of the synthesized zirconyl naphthenate.
