Ladies and gentlemen, it has finally happened.
Scientists have invented magic.
An E.Coli strain that eats sugar and shits 1,4-b.
Thats right. We can now grow G.
Excuse me while I go clean myself up.
Synthesis
In its industrial synthesis, acetylene reacts with two equivalents of formaldehyde to form 1,4-butynediol, also known as but-2-yne-1,4-diol. This type of process is illustrative of what is known as Reppe Chemistry. Hydrogenation of 1,4-butynediol gives 1,4-butanediol.
It can also be manufactured on an industrial scale by the vapour phase hydrogenation of the esters and anhydrides of maleic acid and succinic acid.
Genomatica (a San Diego-based company) has genetically engineered E. coli to devour sugar and construct 1,4-butanediol. They expect to build and begin operating a pilot plant by the end of 2009. CEO Christopher Gann said it takes 32,000 BTU/per pound to make. This is much less than the process listed above, and does not have any by-products.[1] [2]
What's the legal status of GBL in Oz? They're banning it in the UK end of the year and I'm thinking of ordering some before that happens(living in Oz now).
