(R)-(-)-1,3-Butanediol

CAS: 6290-03-5

(R)-(-)-1,3-Butanediol is a chiral compound that belongs to the group of organic compounds called diols. It is used in the fermentation of Candida parapsilosis and other yeast species to produce enantiomerically pure (S)-(-)-1,3-butanediol. The racemate can be converted into the two enantiomers by chemical means or by enzymatic resolution. The process for large-scale production is similar to that for ethanol fermentation, but with 2-propanol as substrate instead of glucose. The fermentor has been shown to be effective at producing large quantities of 1,3-butanediol in a short time period.
