title: Synthesis and sensing of bisphosphonophosphate alkyl monoesters: A novel class of compounds for the study of nucleoside 5'-triphosphate chemistry.
abstract: A series of novel β,γ-methylene-, monofluoromethylene-, and difluoromethylene-bisphosphonophosphate alkyl monoesters was synthesized. The compounds were conveniently detected during preparative HPLC using post-column derivatization with a phosphate-specific chemosensor.
