    2,3-Butanediol is a chemical compound with the formula C4H10O2 that exists as one of the constitutional isomers of butanediol. It is produced naturally by microorganisms through a process called butanediol fermentation and is found in cocoa butter, plant roots, corn, and mussels. During World War II, it was researched as a means to produce 1,3-butadiene through fermentation in order to synthesize rubber for tires and other uses.

    2,3-Butanediol is a chemical compound composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Its formula is C 4H 10O2.

    It is one of the constitutional isomers of butanediol.

    Uses and manufacturing


    The (2R ,3R )-stereoisomer of 2,3-butanediol is produced by a variety of microorganisms in a process known as butanediol fermentation. It is found naturally in cocoa butter, in the roots of Ruta graveolens, sweet corn, and in rotten mussels. It is used in the resolution of carbonyl compounds in gas chromatography During World War II research was done towards producing 2,3-butanediol by fermentation in order to produce 1,3-butadiene, the monomer of the polybutadiene used in a leading type of synthetic rubber
