Intermediate C-3 1-hydroxyalkyl or 1-hydroxyarylalkyl cephems, prepared by reacting Grignard reagents at low temperature with 3-formyl-2-cephem compounds, are oxidized to the corresponding 7-acylamino-3-acyl-2(or 3)cephem-4-carboxylic acids and esters thereof, which are useful as antibiotics or as intermediates in preparing antibiotic substances.
