Scheme 1

The general mechanism of inhibition of serine proteases by 1-aminoalkylphosphonate diphenyl esters (1-AAP): (A) catalytic oxygen of the serine attacks the electrophilic phosphorus atom; (B) pentacoordinate intermediate formation with loosing single phenoxy group; (C) “complex aging” with loosing second phenoxy group.
