Patent ID: 7812028

Claim:
A compound of the formula: or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein: A is CH; R 2 is hydrogen and R 1 is selected from the group consisting of: (a) cycloalkyl, which is optionally substituted by hydroxy, lower hydroxyalkyl or lower alkoxy, (b) 1-hydroxy-2-indanyl, (c) lower hydroxyalkyl, (d) lower hydroxyhalogenalkyl, (e) lower hydroxyalkoxyalkyl, (f) —CH 2 —CR 9 R 10 -cycloalkyl, wherein R 9 is hydrogen or lower alkyl; and wherein R 10 is hydrogen, hydroxy or lower alkoxy; and (g) —CR 11 R 12 —COOR 13 ; wherein R 11 and R 12 independently from each other are hydrogen or lower alkyl; and wherein R 13 is lower alkyl; or alternatively, R 1 and R 2 together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached form a morpholinyl ring; G is a group selected from the group consisting of: (a) —X—R 3 , wherein X is O or NR 14 , wherein R 14 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, lower alkyl and lower hydroxyalkyl; and R 3 is lower cycloalkylalkyl, (b) —C≡C—R 15 , wherein R 15 is selected from the group consisting of lower alkoxyalkyl, cycloalkyl and furanyl substituted by halogen; and (c) —CH 2 —CH 2 —R 16 , wherein R 16 is selected from the group consisting of: (1) a cycloalkyl which is optionally substituted by hydroxy or lower alkoxy, (2) a heteroaryl which is pyridyl or imidazolyl, which is optionally substituted by lower alkyl or halogen, and (3) lower alkylaminocarbonyl; R 4 and R 8 independently from each other are hydrogen or halogen; R 5 and R 7 independently from each other are selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, halogen, lower halogenalkyl, lower halogenalkoxy and cyano; R 6 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, lower alkoxy, halogen, lower halogenalkyl, lower halogenalkoxy and cyano; and R 17 is lower halogenalkyl.
