New farnesyl phosphonate derivatives of phenylalanine have been prepared as inhibitors of farnesyl-protein transferase (FPT). Enzyme inhibition studies with bovine brain FPT and rat liver squalene synthase show that compound <(3a)under bar> is a new, potent and selective FPT inhibitor. Moreover, structural modifications from <(3a)under bar> have provided some useful information concerning the key structural subunits necessary for optimum and selective FPT inhibition.
