Applications: |
1,4-Butanediol is used industrially as a
solvent and in the manufacture of some types of plastics,
elastic fibers and polyurethanes. In organic chemistry,
1,4-butanediol is used for the synthesis of γ-butyrolactone
(GBL). In the presence of phosphoric acid and high temperature,
it dehydrates to the important solvent tetrahydrofuran. At about
200 癈 in the presence of soluble ruthenium catalysts, the diol
undergoes dehydrogenation to form butyrolactone. |
