Three α,α-difluorophosphonate derivatives of fosmidomycin were synthesized from diethyl 1,1-difluorobut-3-enylphosphonate and were evaluated on <i>Escherichia coli</i>. Two of them are among the best 1-deoxy-d-xylulose 5-phosphate reductoisomerase inhibitors, with IC<sub>50</sub> in the nM range, much better than fosmidomycin, the reference compound. They also showed an enhanced antimicrobial activity against <i>E. coli</i> on Petri dishes in comparison with the corresponding phosphates and the ...[more]
