Preparation Method
- 1,4-butanedione dehydrogenation method in the presence of a catalyst, 1,4-butanediol first dehydrogenated to generate 7L hydroxybutyraldehyde, and then condensed and dehydrogenated to generate γ-butyrolactone.
- direct hydrogenation of maleic anhydride
Use
mainly used for the synthesis of pyrrolidone, chlorophenoxybutyrate herbicides, plant growth regulators. It can also be used as a polymer solvent, an extractant for petroleum processing, etc.
Safety
- This product is a low toxic substance, which has anesthetic effect on the central nervous system. The oral LD50 = 1800mg/kg in rats has a stimulating effect on the skin, mucosa and upper respiratory tract irritation.
