Description:
Butyrolactone II, also known as 2-pyrrolidinone or gamma-butyrolactone (GBL), is a cyclic ester with the chemical formula C4H6O2. It is a colorless, hygroscopic liquid that is soluble in water and organic solvents. This compound is characterized by its pleasant odor and is known for its ability to act as a solvent and a precursor in the synthesis of various chemicals. Butyrolactone II has a relatively low boiling point and a moderate vapor pressure, making it volatile under certain conditions. It is commonly used in the production of plastics, pharmaceuticals, and as a solvent in various industrial applications. Additionally, it has been studied for its potential use in the field of medicine, particularly in relation to its effects on the central nervous system. However, it is important to handle this substance with care, as it can pose health risks if ingested or improperly managed.
