A "wet"process and two "dry"processes for converting phosphonate esters to phosphonic acids catalyzed by a Bronsted acid have been developed. Thus, in the presence of water, a range of alkyl-, alkenyl-, and aryl-substituted phosphonates can be generally hydrolyzed to the corresponding phosphonic acids in good yields catalyzed by trifluoromethyl sulfonic acid (TfOH) at 140 °C (the wet process). On the other hand, with specific substituents of the phosphonate esters, the conversion to the corresponding phosphonic acids can be achieved under milder conditions in the absence of water (the dry process). Thus, the conversion of dibenzyl phosphonates to the corresponding phosphonic acids took place smoothly at 80 °C in toluene or benzene in high yields. Moreover, selective conversion of benzyl phosphonates RP(O)(OR′)(OBn) to the corresponding mono phosphonic acids RP(O)(OR′)(OH) can also be achieved under the reaction conditions. The dealkylation via the generation of isobutene of ditert- butyl phosphonate, and the related catalysis by TfOH took place even at room temperature to give the corresponding phosphonic acids in good to high yields. Nafion also shows high catalytic activity for these reactions. By using Nafion as the catalyst, phosphonic acids could be easily prepared on a large scale via a simple process.

We synthesized and evaluated new zwitterionic inhibitors against glycoside hydrolase-like phosphorylase Streptomyces coelicolor (Sco) GlgEI-V279S which plays a role in α-glucan biosynthesis. Sco GlgEI-V279S serves as a model enzyme for validated anti-Tuberculosis (TB) target Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) GlgE. Pyrrolidine inhibitors 5 and 6 were designed based on transition state considerations and incorporate a phosphonate on the pyrrolidine moiety to expand the interaction network between the inhibitor and the enzyme active site. Compounds 5 and 6 inhibited Sco GlgEI-V279S with Ki = 45 ± 4 μM and 95 ± 16 μM, respectively, and crystal structures of Sco GlgE-V279S-5 and Sco GlgE-V279S-6 were obtained at a 3.2 ? and 2.5 ? resolution, respectively.
