'''1-Butanol''', also known as '''butan-1-ol''' or '''''n''-butanol''', is a [[Alcohol (chemistry)|primary alcohol]] with the [[chemical formula]] C<sub>4</sub>H<sub>9</sub>OH and a linear structure. [[Isomer]]s of 1-butanol are [[isobutanol]], [[butan-2-ol]] and [[tert-butanol|''tert''-butanol]]. The unmodified term [[butanol]] usually refers to the straight chain isomer.

1-Butanol occurs naturally as a minor product of the [[ethanol fermentation]] of [[sugar]]s and other [[saccharide]]s<ref>{{citation | last1 = Hazelwood | first1 = Lucie A. | last2 = Daran | first2 = Jean-Marc | last3 = van Maris | first3 = Antonius J.

The largest use of 1-butanol is as an industrial intermediate, particularly for the manufacture of [[butyl acetate]] (itself an artificial flavorant and industrial solvent). It is a [[petrochemical]] derived from [[propylene]]. Estimated production figures for 1997 are: United States 784,000&nbsp;tonnes; Western Europe 575,000&nbsp;tonnes; Japan 225,000&nbsp;tonnes.<ref name="SIDS"/>

==Production==
Since the 1950s, most 1-butanol is produced by the [[hydroformylation]] of [[propene]] (oxo process) to preferentially form the [[butyraldehyde]] n-butanal.  Typical catalysts are based on cobalt and rhodium. Butyraldehyde is then [[hydrogenation|hydrogenated]] to produce butanol.
[[File:Propen_Hydroformylierung_zu_Butanol.svg|class=skin-invert-image|center]]

A second method for producing butanol involves the [[Reppe reaction]] of propylene with CO and water:<ref name=Ull>{{Ullmann | first1 = Heinz-Dieter | last1 = Hahn | first2 = Georg | last2 = Dämbkes | first3 = Norbert | last3 = Rupprich | title = Butanols|doi = 10.1002/14356007.a04_463|year=2005}}.</ref>
:CH<sub>3</sub>CH=CH<sub>2</sub> + H<sub>2</sub>O + 2 CO → CH<sub>3</sub>CH<sub>2</sub>CH<sub>2</sub>CH<sub>2</sub>OH + CO<sub>2</sub>

In former times, butanol was prepared from [[crotonaldehyde]], which can be obtained from [[acetaldehyde]].

Butanol can also be produced by [[fermentation]] of [[biomass]] by bacteria. Prior to the 1950s, ''[[Clostridium acetobutylicum]]'' was used in [[industrial fermentation]] to produce butanol. Research in the past few decades showed results of other microorganisms that can produce butanol through fermentation.

Butanol can be produced via furan hydrogenation over Pd or Pt catalyst at high temperature and high pressure.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Wang |first1=Shengguang |last2=Vorotnikov |first2=Vassili |last3=G. Vlachos |first3=Dionisios |date=2014 |title=A DFT study of furan hydrogenation and ring opening on Pd(111) |url=https://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlehtml/2014/gc/c3gc41183d |journal=Green Chemistry |language=en |volume=16 |issue=2 |pages=736–747 |doi=10.1039/C3GC41183D|doi-access=free }}</ref>

==Industrial use==
Constituting 85% of its use, 1-butanol is mainly used in the production of [[varnish]]es. It is a popular solvent, e.g. for [[nitrocellulose]]. A variety of butanol derivatives are used as solvents, e.g. [[butoxyethanol]] or [[butyl acetate]]. Many [[plasticizer]]s are based on butyl esters, e.g., [[dibutyl phthalate]]. The [[monomer]] [[butyl acrylate]] is used to produce polymers. It is the precursor to [[n-butylamine]]s.<ref name=Ull/>

===Biofuel===
1-Butanol has been proposed as a substitute for [[diesel fuel]] and [[gasoline]]. It is produced in small quantities in nearly all [[Fermentation (biochemistry)|fermentations]] (see [[fusel oil]]). [[Clostridium]] produces much higher yields of butanol.  Research is underway to increase the biobutanol yield from [[biomass]].

Butanol is considered as a potential [[biofuel]] ([[butanol fuel]]). Butanol at 85 percent strength can be used in cars designed for gasoline without any change to the engine (unlike 85% ethanol), and it provides more energy for a given volume than ethanol, almost as much as gasoline. Therefore, a vehicle using butanol would return fuel consumption more comparable to gasoline than ethanol. Butanol can also be added to diesel fuel to reduce soot emissions.<ref>{{cite journal|author=Antoni, D.|author2=Zverlov, V.|author3=Schwarz, W. H.|name-list-style=amp|year=2007|title=Biofuels from Microbes|journal=Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology|volume=77|issue=1|pages=23–35|doi=10.1007/s00253-007-1163-x|pmid=17891391|s2cid=35454212}}</ref>

The production of, or in some cases, the use of, the following substances may result in exposure to 1-butanol: [[artificial leather]], [[butyl ester]]s, [[rubber cement]], dyes, fruit essences, lacquers, motion picture, and photographic films, raincoats, perfumes, [[pyroxylin]] plastics, [[rayon]], safety glass, [[shellac]] varnish, and waterproofed cloth.<ref name="EHC"/>

==Metabolism and toxicity==
The acute toxicity of 1-butanol is relatively low, with oral [[Median lethal dose|LD<sub>50</sub>]] values of 790–4,360&nbsp;mg/kg (rat; comparable values for ethanol are 7,000–15,000&nbsp;mg/kg).<ref name="SIDS"/><ref>{{SIDS-ref|name=Ethanol|id=64175|date=August 2005}}.</ref><ref name=Ull/> It is metabolized completely in vertebrates in a manner similar to [[ethanol]]: [[alcohol dehydrogenase]] converts 1-butanol to [[butyraldehyde]]; this is then converted to [[butyric acid]] by [[aldehyde dehydrogenase]]. Butyric acid can be fully metabolized to [[carbon dioxide]] and [[water]] by the [[β-oxidation]] pathway. In the rat, only 0.03% of an oral dose of 2,000&nbsp;mg/kg was excreted in the urine.<ref>{{citation |last1=Gaillard |first1=D. |last2=Derache |first2=R. |year=1965 |title=Métabilisation de différents alcools présents dans les biossons alcooliques chez le rat |journal=Trav.

===Other hazards===
Liquid 1-butanol, as is common with most organic solvents, is extremely irritating to the eyes; repeated contact with the skin can also cause irritation.<ref name="SIDS"/> This is believed to be a generic effect of [[defatting (medical)|defatting]]. No skin sensitization has been observed. Irritation of the respiratory pathways occurs only at very high concentrations (>2,400&nbsp;ppm).<ref name="Monell">{{citation |last1=Wysocki |first1=C. J. |last2=Dalton |first2=P. |year=1996 |title=Odor and Irritation Thresholds for 1-Butanol in Humans |publisher=Monell Chemical Senses Center |location=Philadelphia}}, cited in {{SIDS-ref |name=''n''-Butanol |id=71363 |date=April 2005}}.</ref>

With a [[flash point]] of 35&nbsp;°C, 1-butanol presents a moderate fire hazard: it is slightly more flammable than [[kerosene]] or [[diesel fuel]] but less flammable than many other common organic solvents. The depressant effect on the central nervous system (similar to ethanol intoxication) is a potential hazard when working with 1-butanol in enclosed spaces, although the odour threshold (0.2–30&nbsp;ppm) is far below the concentration which would have any neurological effect.<ref name="Monell"/><ref>{{citation |last1=Cometto-Muñiz |first1=J.
