Abstract:
A compound of formula (I): wherein:R1 represents a substituent selected from: a hydrogen or halogen atom; a hydroxy, cyano, nitro, trifluoromethyl, trifluoromethoxy, trifluoromethanesulfonyloxy, pentafluoroethyl, C1-4alkyl, C1-4alkoxy, arylC1-4alkoxy, C1-4alkylthio, C1-4alkoxyC1-4alkyl, C3-6cycloalkylC1-4alkoxy, C1-4alkanoyl, C1-4alkoxycarbonyl, C1-4alkylsulfonyl, C1-4alkylsulfonyloxy, C1-4alkylsulfonylC1-4alkyl, arylsulfonyl, arylsulfonyloxy, arylsulfonylC1-4alkyl, C1-4alkylsulfonamido, C1-4alkylamido, C1-4alkylsulfonamidoC1-4alkyl, C1-4alkylamidoC1-4alkyl, arylsulfonamido, arylcarboxamido, arylsulfonamidoC1-4alkyl, arylcarboxamidoC1-4alkyl, aroyl, aroylC1-4alkyl, or arylC1-4alkanoyl group; a group R3OCO(CH2)p, R3CON(R4)(CH2)p, R3R4NCO(CH2)p or R3R4NSO2(CH2)p where each of R3 and R4 independently represents a hydrogen atom or a C1-4alkyl group or R3R4 forms part of a C3-6azacyloalkane or C3-6(2-oxo)azacycloalkane ring and p represents zero or an integer from 1 to 4; or a group Ar3â€”Z, wherein Ar3 represents an optionally substituted phenyl ring or an optionally substituted 5- or 6-membered aromatic heterocyclic ring and Z represents a bond, O, S, or CH2; R2 represents a hydrogen atom or a C1-4alkyl group; q is 1 or 2; A represents a group of the formula (a), (b) or (c): â€ƒwherein Ar represents an optionally substituted phenyl ring or an optionally substituted 5- or 6-membered aromatic heterocyclic ring; or an optionally substituted bicyclic ring system; Ar1 and Ar2 each independently represent an optionally substituted phenyl ring or an optionally substituted 5- or 6-membered aromatic heterocyclic ring; and Y represents a bond, â€”NHCOâ€”, â€”CONHâ€”, â€”CH2â€”, or â€”(CH2)mY1(CH2)nâ€”, wherein Y1 represents O, S, SO2, or CO and m and n each represent zero or 1 such that the sum of m+n is zero or 1; providing that when A represents a group of formula (a), any substituent present in Ar ortho to the carboxamide moiety is necessarily a hydrogen or a methoxy group; or a salt thereof.
