1.4-Butanediol (C4H10O2)

1.4-Butanediol is a chemical. BDO is used in industry to make floor strippers, paint thinners and other solvent products. BDO is sometimes used in health products as a substitute for illegal substances such as gamma-lactone (GBL) and gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB). Unfortunately, 1,4-butanediol is just as dangerous as GBL and GHB.

BDO has been used for muscle strength, obesity, insomnia, and to increase growth hormone production, but there is no good scientific evidence to support any use.

1.4-Butanediol

1.4-Butanediol (chemical formula: HOCH2CH2CH2CH2OH) is one of the isomers of butanediol, a terminal dihydroxy substituent of butane, which is a colorless, viscous liquid at room temperature. Industrially, BDO is produced by allowing acetylene to react with two molecules of formaldehyde to form BDO, which is then hydrogenated. BDO can also be obtained by gas-phase hydrogenation of anhydrides.
