The diacetyl drawing has been corrected. I see the old drawing - for a few minutes, hours, or days, but eventually, I see the updated one. I don't know what the rest of Wikipedia sees.

If the old one persists, I'll upload a new drawing with a different name. Brian Rock 23:24, 27 Jun 2004 (UTC)

[edit] IUPAC-name?

Wouldn't the official name be butanedione instead of 2,3-butanedione? There is no other way to arrange the two oxo-groups to form a diketone! --Malbi 22:24, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

Hey, this is a year late but I think you're right! However, most of the Internet calls it 2,3-butanedione anyway... however, I shall insert this name as well. 218.102.220.129 11:39, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
