Title
Double prodrugs of a fosmidomycin surrogate as antimalarial and antitubercular agents
Author
Abstract
A series of eleven double prodrug derivatives of a fosmidomycin surrogate were synthesized and investigated for their ability to inhibit in vitro growth of P. falciparum and M. tuberculosis. A pivaloyloxymethyl (POM) phosphonate prodrug modification was combined with various prodrug derivatisations of the hydroxamate moiety. The majority of compounds showed activity comparable with or inferior to fosmidomycin against P. falciparum. N-benzyl substituted carbamate prodrug 6f was the most active antimalarial analog with an IC50 value of 0.64 mu M. Contrary to fosmidomycin and parent POM-prodrug 5, 2-nitrofuran and 2-nitrothiophene prodrugs 6i and 6j displayed promising antitubercular activities.
