same conditions the -anomer of 10 was stable. Complete hydrolysis of DL-3 with aqueous NaOH, or with microsomial epoxide hydrolase (MEH) gave exclusively the xylo-diol (isobutyl DL-α-boivinopyranoside 5). When the hydrolysis with MEH was stopped near 50% conversion and the product diol was separated from the unchanged epoxide, both were optically active, the former having the L and the latter the D
