title: gamma-Substituted bis(pivaloyloxymethyl)ester analogues of fosmidomycin and FR900098.
abstract: The synthesis and in-vitro antimalarial activity of gamma-substituted bis(pivaloyloxymethyl)ester analogues of the drug candidate fosmidomycin have been investigated. In contrast to the high antimalarial activity of alpha-aryl substituted fosmidomycin analogues like alpha-phenylfosmidomycin, gamma-substituted derivatives display only weak to moderate activity against the chloroquine-sensitive strain 3D7 of Plasmodium falciparum.
