(R)- and (S)-γ-[3-2H1]butyrolactones have been synthesised from (R)- and (S)-glycidol, respectively, and used to demonstrate that it is the pro-(S) hydrogen atom that is stereospecifically abstracted from C-3 of 4-hydroxybutyryl-CoA by 4-hydroxybutyryl-CoA dehydratase, and that this atom is not returned to C-4.
