Abstract The cephalosporin-type antibiotics Cephalexin, Cephradine and Cefadroxil have been prepared by coupling of their β-lactam nucleus and racemic amino acid side chain precursors. The initially obtained mixture of cephalosporin epimers is subjected to a clathration-induced asymmetric transformation which results in the epimerization of the epi- cephalosporin into the cephalosporin with the correct diastereomeric configuration.
