Phosphonates and Phosphonate Prodrugs in Medicinal Chemistry: Past Successes and Future Prospects
Compounds with a phosphonate group, i.e., –P(O)(OH)2 group attached directly to the molecule via a P-C bond serve as suitable non-hydrolyzable phosphate mimics in various biomedical applications. In principle, they often inhibit enzymes utilizing various phosphates as substrates. In this review we f...
