Patent ID: 8168631

Claim:
A compound represented by the Formula I: or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein: A is a cyclic amide moiety of the structure: wherein the carbonyl carbon atom directly attaches to the carbon atom of Formula I, and wherein the nitrogen atom attached to the carbonyl of the amide moiety is part of a cycle; and further wherein A has the molecular formula C 1-7 O 1-2 S 0-1 N 1-2 H 2-16 F 0-2 ; B is an amine moiety of the structure: wherein one bond from the nitrogen atom attaches to the carbon atom of Formula I, and the other two bonds from the nitrogen attach to the remainder of the amine moiety; an N-amide moiety of the structure: wherein one bond from the nitrogen atom attaches to the carbon atom of Formula I, and the other bond from the nitrogen atom and the bond from the carbonyl carbon attach to the remainder of the N-amide moiety; or a sulfonamide moiety of the structure: wherein each R 3 independently is H or C 1-6 alkyl; and further wherein B has the molecular formula C 1-12 H 2-30 O 1-4 S 0-1 N 1-3 F 0-2 Cl 0-2 Br 0-2 I 0-2 , and R is H, C 1-6 alkyl, or C 1-6 acyl.
