General description
3,4-Dihydroxy-1-butene, also known as 3-butene-1,2-diol (BDdiol), is a metabolite of 1,3-butadiene. It forms the precursor for synthesizing different chiral building blocks. BDdiol can undergo oxidation to form hydroxymethylvinyl ketone (HMVK). 1,2-epoxy-3-butene (EB) on hydrolysis in the presence of epoxide hydrolases (EH) forms BDdiol.
Application
3,4-Dihydroxy-1-butene can be used:
- As a reactant to synthesize cyclic organic carbonates by continuous flow procedure.
- To prepare substituted oxazolidinone ligands used to target medicinally relevant RNAs.

3-Butene-1,2-diol (BDD) is a metabolite of the carcinogenic petrochemical 1,3-butadiene. BDD is produced by cytochrome P450-mediated oxidation of 1,3-butadiene to butadiene monoxide, followed by enzymatic hydrolysis by epoxide hydrolase. The metabolic disposition of BDD is unknown.

1. In rat liver microsomes, 1,3-butadiene was metabolized to butadiene monoxide, which was subsequently transformed into 3-butene-1,2-diol by microsomal epoxide hydrolase. 2. In the metabolism of butadiene oxide in microsomes, four metabolites were detected, namely two stereoisomers of DL-diepoxybutane, and
