## Abstract Utilizing sodium [1β^14^C]propionate as a precursor, [^14^C]FKβ506, labeled at carbon atoms 10, 16, 18, 21a, 24, and 26, was produced by fermentative biosynthesis. Extractive isolation followed by chromatographic purification provided material of purity suitable for metabolism studies.

β¦ Synopsis
The immunosuppressive macrolides ascomycin % 1 and FK 506 % 2 were stereoselectively deuteriated at C(32) using Curran's radical translocating method. Both AIBN and Et 3 B/O 2 were tested as radical initiator for the radical translocation/reduction step with Bu 3 SnD as reducing agent. Despite only minor structural differences, ascomycin and FK 506 showed remarkably different behaviour under the radical translocation/reduction conditions. Higher stereoselectivities were observed with Et 3 B/O 2 as initiator, presumably due to lower reaction temperatures applied in this case.
