Patent ID: 7470821

Claim:
An aromatic compound comprising an aldehyde group, a phenol group and a phosphate group or a mimetic thereof, wherein: its aromatic nucleus comprises two aromatic benzene chains, it corresponds to the following general formula: where: The aldehyde group (—CHO) and the phenol group (—OH) are linked to two adjacent carbon atoms from the same aromatic chain, known as the first aromatic chain, and linked to a carbon atom in a second aromatic chain, known as the second aromatic chain, with R a phosphate group or a phosphate group mimetic selected from among: a enzymolabile protecting group adapted to allow said aromatic compound to pass through the cell and/or parasite membrane systems passively, and to be able to generate, once inside a cell or parasite, the formation of a phosphate group or a stable phosphate group analogue a stable phosphate group analogue adapted to preserve the aromatic compound of spontaneous or enzyme dephosphorylation.
