Acyloxyalkyl esters of phosphate-containing second messengers which are capable of permeating cell membranes. Once inside the cell, the ester derivatives undergo enzymatic conversion to the biologically active form of the second messenger. The acyloxyalkyl esters have the formula: ##STR1## wherein A.sub.1 to A.sub.6 is H, OH, F or ##STR2## wherein R is an alkyl group having from 2 to 6 carbon atoms and R' is H or CH.sub.3 or R is CH.sub.3 and R' is CH.sub.3 and wherein at least one of A.sub.1 to A.sub.6 is a phosphoester having the formula set forth above.
