'''1,4-Butanediol''' ('''1,4-B''', '''butylene glycol,''' or '''BD''') is a thick, colourless liquid which is nearly odorless with a distinct bitter taste. 1,4-Butanediol is used industrially as a solvent and in the manufacture of some types of plastics, elastic fibers and polyurethanes. In organic chemistry, 1,4-butanediol is used for the synthesis of [[GBL|γ-butyrolactone (GBL)]].<ref>http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/om048983m</ref>
