Claims6
A compound of Formula VII ##STR10## wherein R.sub.1 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl of one to about six carbon atoms, hydroxy alkyl wherein the alkyl moiety contains one to about 6 carbon atoms, and arylalkyl wherein the alkyl moiety contains one to about three carbon atoms;
- and R.sub.2 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl of one to about four carbon atoms, alkoxyalkyl wherein the alkoxy moiety contains one to about four carbon atoms and the alkyl moiety contains one to about four carbon atoms, hydroxyl alkyl wherein the alkyl moiety contains one to about four carbon atoms, haloalkyl wherein the alkyl moiety contains one to about four carbon atoms, and aryloxymethyl.
A compound of Formula XI ##STR11## wherein R.sub.1 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl of one to about six carbon atoms, hydroxy alkyl wherein the alkyl moiety contains one to about 6 carbon atoms, and arylalkyl wherein the alkyl moiety contains one to about three carbon atoms;
- and R.sub.2 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl of one to about four carbon atoms, alkoxyalkyl wherein the alkoxy moiety contains one to about four carbon atoms and the alkyl moiety contains one to about four carbon atoms, hydroxyl alkyl wherein the alkyl moiety contains one to about four carbon atoms, haloalkyl wherein the alkyl moiety contains one to about four carbon atoms, and aryloxymethyl.
