The present invention provides a compound having the structure of formula I: n nwherein R 1 is hydrogen, (C 1 –C 6 ) alkyl, unconjugated (C 3 –C 6 ) alkenyl, benzyl, YC(═O)(C 1 –C 6 ) alkyl or —CH 2 CH 2 —O—(C 1 –C 4 ) alkyl; X is CH 2 or CH 2 CH 2 ; Y is (C 2 –C 6 ) alkylene; Z is (CH 2 ) m , CF 2 , or C(═O), where m is 0, 1 or 2; R 2 and R 3 are selected independently from hydrogen, halogen, —(C 1 –C 6 ) alkyl optionally substituted with from 1 to 7 halogen atoms, and —O(C 1 –C 6 ) alkyl optionally substituted with from 1 to 7 halogen atoms, or R 2 and R 3 each together with the atom to which it is connected independently form C(═O), S→O, S(═O) 2 , or N→O; andn n nis a 5- to 7-membered monocyclic heteroaryl group selected from pyridinyl, pyridone, pyridazinyl, imidazolyl, pyrimidinyl, pyrazolyl, triazolyl, pyrazinyl, furyl, thienyl, isoxazolyl, thiazolyl, oxazolyl, isothiazolyl, pyrrolyl, cinnolinyl, triazinyl, oxadiazolyl, thiadiazolyl and furazanyl groups. |
