The present invention involves a new synthesis route for the formation of lactylates. The method comprises reacting a dilactide with a compound comprising a hydroxy group. This reaction is preferably carried out in the presence of a cation or other source of alkalinity. Preferred compounds comprising a hydroxy group include any fatty acid and fatty acid alcohol (particularly C

fatty acid chains). Preferred cations include cations of Group I and II metals, with sodium, calcium, and potassium cations being particularly preferred. The inventive reactions proceed much more rapidly than prior art lactylate synthesis reactions, and can be used to form 1-, 2-, 3-, 4-, and 5-lactylates.
本发明涉及一种用于合成乳酰酸盐的新合成途径。该方法包括将二乳酸酯与含有羟基的化合物发生反应。该反应最好在存在阳离子或其他碱性来源的情况下进行。含有羟基的化合物包括任何脂肪酸和脂肪醇(尤其是碳链为C1-C26的脂肪酸链)。优选的阳离子包括I和II族金属的阳离子,其中特别优选的是钠、钙和钾阳离子。这种创新的反应比现有技术中的乳酰酸盐合成反应快得多,并可用于形成1-、2-、3-、4-和5-乳酰酸盐。
