Cyanohydrins of arylaldehides can be obtained in high optical purity using the'Inoue' dipeptide catalyst system and converted into enantiomerically and diastereochemically pure threo-3-aryl-2,3-dihydroxypropanoic acid derivatives using a route which involves a novel base-catalysed equilibration of the acetonides of the cyanodiols.
