چکیده

This review article presents a comprehensive analysis of the synthesis, physicochemical properties, technological processes, and applications of vinyl esters of carboxylic acids. The study highlights the strategic importance of vinyl esters as key intermediates in organic synthesis and industrial polymer production. Special attention is devoted to catalytic vinylation reactions involving acetylene, alkynes, and vinyl acetate, using both homogeneous and heterogeneous catalytic systems based on transition metals such as ruthenium, palladium, cobalt, and iridium. The article also examines environmentally and economically viable approaches to synthesizing vinyl esters, including enzymatic and green catalytic methods. Additionally, the structural transformations, photochemical rearrangements, and decomposition pathways of vinyl esters are analyzed. The practical applications of vinyl esters in medicine, materials science, coatings, adhesives, and biodegradable polymers are critically reviewed, demonstrating their significance as sustainable alternatives in modern polymer and fine chemical industries.
