โฆ Synopsis
A structure-based approach was pursued in designing novel bisphosphonate inhibitors of the human farnesyl pyrophosphate synthase (hFPPS). Preliminary SAR and structural evidence for the simultaneous binding of these inhibitors into the isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP) and the geranyl pyrophosphate (GPP) substrate sub-pockets of the enzyme are presented.

## Abstract The synthesis of two new analogues (__i.e.__ 3 and 4) of farnesyl pyrophosphate (FPP) containing a phosphonophosphate and a phosphonophosphonate moiety was accomplished via the phosphonomorpholidate. The latter was easily obtained by treatment of a phosphonic chloride with morpholine.
