Patent ID: 7235563

Claim:
A compound having formula (I): and salts thereof, wherein the symbols have the following meanings, and are, for each occurrence, independently selected: G is CH or N; X and Y are independently selected from H, CN, NO 2 , F, Cl, Br, I, CH 3 , CH 2 CH 3 , CF 3 , and/or CF 2 CF 3 ; and Z is independently selected from H, CN, F, Cl , Br, I, CH 3 , CH 2 CH 3 , CF 3 , or CF 2 CF 3 ; where zero or one of X, Y, or Z is H; either X and Y, or Y and Z can be fused to form a ring of 5 or 6 atoms that can be aryl, substituted aryl, heterocyclic, or heterocyclic substituted with one or more methyl or ethyl groups; Q 1 , Q 2 , Q 3 , and Q 4 are independently selected from H, alkyl, substituted alkyl, cycloalkyl, substituted cycloalkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, substituted cycloalkylalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, substituted heterocycloalkyl, arylalkyl, substituted arylalkyl, and/or OR 2 ; R 1 and R 1′ are independently selected from alkyl, substituted alkyl, alkenyl, substituted alkenyl, cycloalkyl, substituted cycloalkyl, heterocyclo, substituted heterocyclo, cycloalkylalkyl, substituted cycloalkylalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, substituted heterocycloalkyl, aryl, substituted aryl, arylalkyl, and/or substituted arylalkyl; R 2 is selected from alkyl, substituted alkyl, cycloalkyl, substituted cycloalkyl, heterocyclo, substituted heterocyclo, cycloalkylalkyl, substituted cycloalkylalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, substituted heterocycloalkyl, aryl, substituted aryl, arylalkyl, substituted arylalkyl, R 1 C═O, R 1 OC═O, —N(R 1 )HC═O, —C═ONR 1 R 1′ , —SO 2 R 1 , —SO 2 OR 1 , or —SO 2 NR 1 R 1′ ; and each R 4 is independently selected from H, alkyl, substituted alkyl, cycloalkyl, substituted cycloalkyl, heterocyclo, substituted heterocyclo, cycloalkylalkyl, substituted cycloalkylalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, substituted heterocycloalkyl, aryl, substituted aryl, arylalkyl, substituted arylalkyl, R 1 C═O, R 1 OC═O, —N(R 1 )HC═O, —SO 2 R 1 , —SOR 1 , —C═ONR 1 R 1′ , —SO 2 OR 1 , and/or —SO 2 NR 1 R 1′ ; with the following provisos: (1) when G is CH and Z is H, then X and Y cannot be fused to form an unsubstituted aryl ring; (2) when G is CH and X is H, then Y and Z cannot be fused to form an unsubstituted aryl ring; (3) when G is CH, Y is CH 3 , and Z is H, then X is not Br; and (4) when G is CH, Y is H, and Z is F, then X is not Cl.
