Claims60
A compound of formula I:
- wherein:
- R1 is a saturated or unsaturated (C5-C20)alkyl chain that optionally comprises one or more aryl rings in the chain and that is optionally substituted with one or more halo, trifluoromethyl, —ORa, —P(═O)(ORa)2, or —NRbRc;
- R2 is a saturated or unsaturated (C5-C20)alkyl chain that optionally comprises one or more aryl rings in the chain and that is optionally substituted with one or more halo, trifluoromethyl, —ORa, —P(═O)(ORa)2, or —NRbRc;
- each R3, R4, R5, and R6 is independently OH or (C1-C6)alkoxy;
- each Ra is independently H, (C1-C6)alkyl, or aryl;
- and
- each Rb and Rc is independently H, (C1-C6)alkyl, or aryl;
- or Rb and Rc together with the nitrogen to which they are attached form a pyrrolidino, piperidino, morpholino, or thiomorpholino ring;
- wherein any aryl is optionally substituted with one or more (C1-C6)alkyl, (C1-C6)alkoxy, (C1-C6)alkanoyl, (C1-C6)alkanoyloxy, (C1-C6)alkoxycarbonyl, halo, cyano, nitro, carboxy, trifluoromethyl, trifluoromethoxy, NRdRe, or S(O)2NRdRe, wherein each Rd and Re is independently H or (C1-C6)alkyl;
- or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or prodrug thereof.
