The biotransformation of simple xenobiotic oxiranes with rat live enzymes has surprising results: epoxide hydrolases and glutathionone S‐transferases are each preferentially converted into other enantiomers! In the case of the model example cis ‐2‐ethyl‐2‐methyloxirane these are the (2 R ,3 S )‐ and (2 S ,3 R )‐forms, respectively.
