gamma-Butyrolactone(GBL) introduction:
Gamma-Butyrolactone (γ-butyrolactone or GBL) is a hygroscopic colorless liquid with a weak
characteristic odor which is soluble in water. GBL is a common solvent and reagent in chemistry as
well as being used as a flavouring, as a cleaning solvent, as a superglue remover, and as a solvent
in some wet aluminium electrolytic capacitors. In humans it acts as a prodrug for GHB, and it is used
as a recreational intoxicant with effects similar to alcohol.
GBL is a lactone. It is hydrolyzed under basic conditions, for example in a sodium hydroxide solution
into sodium gamma-hydroxybutyrate, the sodium salt of gamma-hydroxybutyric acid. Under acidic
conditions it forms an equilibrium mixture of both compounds. These compounds then may go on to
form a polymer. When treated with a non-nucleophilic base, like lithium diisopropylamide, GBL can
become an alpha-carbon nucleophile. The related compound caprolactone can be used to make a
polyester in this manner.
