Naphthenic acids are also used for preparing alkyd resins which are the starting material for the manufacture of nitro enamels and paints. Lead napthenates are effectively used for preparing paints. Naphthenates of cobalt, manganese, nickel, copper and of iron are used as catalysts in the synthesis and oxidation processes.

The proposed method may be realized as follows.
A petroleum fraction boiling out in a temperature range of 250-350"C is used as the starting material. The properties of the fraction are as follows; molecular mass, 220-240; specific gravity, 0.8520-0.8560; refractive index, 1.46-1.47; congealing point, minus 50"C-55"C; flash point, 110-120"C. The fraction comprises also the following main hydrocarbons, in per cent by weight: aromatic 0.1-2 naphthenes 70-75 paraffins 23-29.2 Each petroleum fraction is oxidized with oxygen at a temperature of 135-140"C. The amount of oxygen used in the reaction is 0.06-0.065 kg/kg per hour.Oxidations is carried out in the presence of a catalyst, a mixture of naphthenates consisting of 30-40 per cent by weight of manganese naphthenate and 60-70 per cent by weight of potassium naphthenate. Said mixture is taken in the quantity of 1.5-2.5 per cent of the weight of the starting petroleum fraction. The oxidation process is continued for 4-4.5 hours. The resultant product is a mixture of organic oxygen-containing compounds consisting of naphthenic, aromatic and fatty acids, products of their peroxidation, oxy acids, ether acids, keto acids, lactones and lactides. The acid value of said organic oxygen-containing mixtures is 25-30 mg KOH per gram.Said mixture of organic oxygen-containing compounds comprises the following main compounds, in per cent by weight: naphthenic acids 15-16 hydroxynaphthenic acids 0.1-1 unsaponifiable oxygen-containing organic compounds 78-92 Said mixture of organic oxygen-containing compounds is diluted with an organic solvent, inactive toward the mixture, taken in the weight ratio of 1:1-1.5 with respect to the mixture. Said inert solvent may be, e.g.
benzine, boiling out in the temperature range of 80-170 C, or petroleum ether. On dilution with the organic solvent, hydroxynaphthenic acids are precipitated and separated by the known methods, e.g. by filtration.
The remaining solution of the mixture of oxygen-containing organic compounds freed from hydroxynaphthenic acid is treated with an aqueous, preferably 10 per cent solution of sodium hydroxide, at a temperature of at which the solvent boils with stirring, for an hour. At the end of the alkali treatment the reaction mixture is settled to separate the solution of unsaponifiable organic oxygen-containing compounds in the organic solvent from the obtained aqueous solution of sodium naphthenates. The solvent is then separated from the unsaponifiable organic oxygen-containing compounds by distillation and returned to the stage of dilution of the mixture of organic oxygen-containing compounds. The aqueous solution of sodium naphthenates is treated with diethyl sulphate at a temperature of 90-95"C for 90-120 minutes with continuously stirring the mixture.The mixture is then allowed to stand and the precipitated sodium sulphate is separated from ethyl naphthenates by the known methods.
Ethyl naphthenates are distilled in vacuum of 3 mm Hg, and the fraction boiling out in the temperature range of 95-170"C is collected. Said fraction is treated with an aqueous, preferably 10 per cent solution of sodium hydroxide with simultaneous distillation of the formed ethyl alcohol. Naphthenic acids, in the form of their mixture, are isolated by the action of mineral acids from the aqueous solution of sodium naphthenates. Sodium naphthenates are treated with a mineral acid to isolate free naphthenic acids.Thus obtained naphthenic acids having the following characteristics: purity (assay), 96.5-97 per cent; unsaponifiable organic oxygen-containing compounds, 1.0-1.6 per cent by weight; acid value, in mg KOH per gram of naphthenic acids, 230-260; colour, by the iodimetric scale (amount of iodine in 100 ml of a 10 per cent aqueous solution of potassium iodide), 20-22; specific gravity, 0.9521-0.9698; refractivity index, 1.4530- 1.4649. The yield of napthenic acids, calculated with reference to the starting petroleum fraction, is 2.73-3.98 per cent by weight. The catalyst used in the process, (the mixture of manganese naphthenate and potassium naphthenate), is a mixture of solid salts, readily soluble in petroleum hydrocarbons.The catalyst is prepared by the known method, described in the book G.S. Petrov, A.l. Danilevich, and A.Y. Rabinovich "Development of Methods for Oxidation of Petroleum and Mineral Oils and Technical Uses of the Obtained Products", Goskhimizdat, Leningrad, 1933. The process of preparing the catalyst is illustrated by the following reactions
wherein RCOOH are naphthenic acids.
According to said reactions, naphthenic acid is neutralized with a 20 per cent aqueous solution of alkali at a temperature of 80-90"C for an hour. A pre-calculated quantity of manganese sulphate is then added to the obtained mixture containing potassium naphthenate, and the exchange reaction is carried out at the same temperature for 90 minutes. The resultant product is manganese naphthenate.
The proposed invention hasthefollowing advantages.
Naphthenic acids obtained by the described method are highly pure (96.5-97 per cent). The content is unsaponifiable organic oxygen-containing substances is low (1.0-1.6 per cent by weight). The obtained napthenic acids are clear homogeneous liquids suitable for use in the paint-and-lacquer industry.
