Acetaldehyde can be converted to butane-1,3-diol in a two-step process. First, acetaldehyde is reduced to 1,3-propanediol using a reducing agent like sodium borohydride. Then, 1,3-propanediol can be dehydrated to form butane-1,3-diol using an acid catalyst, such as sulfuric acid.

Why do Asians get drunk faster and sober faster?

A larger percentage of persons of Asian decent, have a dominant gene mutation which interferes with the role of an enzyme called acetaldehyde dehydrogenase. The role of this enzyme is to convert acetaldehyde, a metabolite of ethanol (alcohol), into acetic acid. Persons with this mutation therefore experience higher levels of acetaldehyde in their systems when they consume alcohol.
