(R,S)- and (R)-3-Bromopropan-1,2-diol (alpha-bromohydrin) produced diuresis and glucosuria when administered to male rats but had no effect on the metabolic activity of rat kidney tubules in vitro. The oxidation products (R,S)-3-bromolactate and 3-bromopyruvate produced brief phases of diuresis but not
