3. The stereoselectivity is often described using relative stereodescriptors to describe the configuration at the anomeric carbon, α and β, instead of the notation 1,2- cis and 1,2- trans. The α descriptor is used for the case where the OH at the anomeric carbon is on the same side as the OH at the reference atom in the Fischer projection, and the β descriptor is used for the opposite side. In the case of glucopyranosides, the 1,2- cis and 1,2- trans positions are defined as the α and β configurations for the anomeric carbon, respectively.
