Abstract
Some current and potential therapeutic uses of bisphosphonates and phosphon ocarboxylates are summarized. The feasibility of synthesizing alpha-hydroxy alpha-alkyl/aryl methyl-enebisphosphonates via Grignard addition to tetraa lkyl carbonylbisphosphonates 6 is demonstrated, and a new synthesis of 6 un der very mild conditions is described.
