Claim:
A compound represented by the structural formula: wherein: X is N; Z is O or N(R 6 ); R 1 and R 2 are the same or different, each being independently selected from the group consisting of aryl, and aralkyl, wherein each of said aryl, and aralkyl can be unsubstituted or optionally independently substituted with one or more moieties which can be the same or different, each moiety being independently selected from the group consisting of halogen, alkyl, aryl, aralkyl, cycloalkyl, CF 3 , CN, â€”OCF 3 , â€”OR 6 , â€”C(O)R 7 , â€”NR 6 R 7 , â€”C(O)OR 6 , â€”C(O)NR 6 R 7 , â€”SR 6 , â€”S(O 2 )R 7 , â€”S(O 2 )NR 6 R 7 , â€”N(R 6 )S(O 2 )R 7 , â€”N(R 6 )C(O)R 7 and â€”N(R 6 )C(O)NR 6 R 7 ; R 3 is H or â€”OR 6 , with the proviso that when X is N, R 3 is not â€”OR 6 ; R 4 is selected from the group consisting of H, alkyl, aryl, cycloalkyl, aralkyl, and aralkyl; m is a number from 0 to 4, and when m is more than 1, the R 4 groups can be the same or different and are independently selected; R 5 is â€”C(O)R 7 or â€”S(O 2 )R 7 ; R 6 is selected from the group consisting of H, alkyl, aryl, aralkyl, and cycloalkyl, wherein each of said alkyl, aryl, aralkyl, and cycloalkyl can be unsubstituted or optionally independently substituted with one or more moieties which can be the same or different, each moiety being independently selected from the group consisting of halogen, alkyl, aryl, cycloalkyl, CF 3 , OCF 3 , CN, â€”OR 7 , â€”NHR 7 , â€”N(R 7 ) 2 , â€”CH 2 OR 7 , â€”C(O)R 7 , â€”C(O)OR 7 , â€”C(O)NHR 7 , â€”C(O)N(R 7 ) 2 , â€”SR 7 , â€”S(O 2 )R 7 , â€”S(O 2 )NHR 7 , â€”S(O 2 )N(R 7 ) 2 , â€”N(R 7 )S(O 2 )R 7 , â€”N(R 7 )C(O)R 7 , â€”N(R 7 )C(O)NHR 7 and â€”N(R 7 )C(O)N(R 7 ) 2 ; and R 7 is selected from the group consisting of alkyl, aryl, aralkyl, â€”OR 6 , â€”NHR 6 , and â€”N(R 6 ) 2 , wherein each of said alkyl, aryl, and aralkyl can be unsubstituted or optionally substituted with one or more moieties which can be the same or different, each moiety being independently selected from the group consisting of halogen, alkyl, aryl, cycloalkyl, CF 3 , OCF 3 , CN, â€”OR 6 , â€”NHR 6 , â€”N(R 6 ) 2 , â€”CH 2 OR 6 , â€”C(O)OR 6 , â€”C(O)NHR 6 , â€”C(O)N(R 6 ) 2 , â€”SR 6 , â€”S(O 2 )R 6 , â€”S(O 2 )NHR 6 , â€”S(O 2 )N(R 6 ) 2 , â€”N(R 6 )S(O 2 )R 6 , â€”N(R 6 )C(O)R 6 , â€”N(R 7 )C(O)NHR 6 and â€”N(R 7 )C(O)N(R 7 ) 2 , further wherein the two R 6 or the two R 7 groups in the moieties â€”N(R 6 ) 2 and â€”N(R 7 ) 2 respectively can be the same or different and are independently selected, and still further wherein any two adjacent alkyl substituents on an aryl can be joined together to form a methylenedioxy or ethylenedioxygroup.
