Abstract:
An atropisomer of the formula ##STR45##wherein R.sup.2 is a phenyl group of the formula Ph.sup.2 or a five or six membered heterocycle, wherein said 6-membered heterocycle has the formula ##STR46##wherein ""N"" is nitrogen; wherein said ring positions ""K"", ""L"" and ""M"" may be independently selected from carbon or nitrogen with the proviso that i) only one of ""K"", ""L"" and ""M"" can be nitrogen and ii) when ""K"", ""L"" or ""M"" is nitrogen, then its respective R.sup.15, R.sup.16 or R.sup.17 is absent;wherein said five membered heterocycle has the formula ##STR47##wherein said ""T"" is --CH--, N, NH, or O; wherein said ring positions ""P"" and ""Q"" may be independently selected from carbon, nitrogen, oxygen or sulfur; with the proviso that (i) only one of ""P,"" ""Q"" or ""T"" can be oxygen, NH or sulfur; (ii) at least one of ""P"", ""Q"" or ""T"" must be a heteroatom; (iii) when ""P"" or ""Q"" is oxygen or sulphur then its respective R.sup.15 or R.sup.16 is absent; (iv) and when Q is sulfur, then T can not be carbon;wherein said Ph.sup.2 is a group of the formula ##STR48##R.sup.3 is hydrogen, halo, --CN, --NO.sub.2, CF.sub.3, (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)alkyl or
