Stereochemistry of the incorporation of valine methyl groups into methylene groups in cephalosporin C.

'Chiral methyl valines', i.e. samples of valine labelled stereospecifically in the methyl groups with 2H and 3H, were incorporated into cephalosporin C by a suspension of washed cells of Cephalosporium acremonium. Analysis by 3H n.m.r. of the cephalosporin C produced showed that the conversion of the 3-pro-S-methyl group of valine into the acetoxymethyl side-chain was a highly stereospecific process. By contrast, conversion of the 3-pro-R-methyl group into the endocyclic methylene group of the dihydrothiazine ring was shown to proceed by a non-stereospecific process.
