## Abstract In this paper, we describe the structure‐based design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of cytosine derivatives and analogues that inhibit IspF, an enzyme in the non‐mevalonate pathway of isoprenoid biosynthesis. This pathway is responsible for the biosynthesis of the C~5~ precursor
## Abstract The enzymes of the non‐mevalonate pathway for isoprenoid biosynthesis are attractive targets for the development of novel drugs against malaria and tuberculosis. This pathway is used exclusively by the corresponding pathogens, but not by humans. A series of water‐soluble, cytidine‐based
