?=? worked up with H2O2/NaOH

Ph(C=O)CH=CH–CH3 worked up with H2O2/NaOH. Is that trans-hydroxilation via epoxides?

good job.
Most Common Suggestions I Make on the Forums.
1. Start by writing a balanced chemical equation.
2. Don't confuse thermodynamic stability with chemical reactivity.
3. Forum Supports LaTex

Will those conditions open the epoxide?  If yes, then you will definitely get trans, as you predicted.
