COMPOUND

摘要

There is provided a compound of Formula (I) wherein (I) R<1> is a selected from (i) an alkyloxyalkyl group (ii) a nitrile group, and wherein R<2> is capable of forming a hydrogen bond (iii) alkylaryl group, wherein the aryl group is substituted by other than a C1-10 group (iv) alkenylaryl group wherein the aryl group is substituted (v) alkyiheteroaryl group, wherein when heteroaryl group comprises only C and N in the ring, the aryl group is substituted by other than a methyl group (vi) alkenylheteroaryl group, (vii) =N-O-alkyl or =N-O-H group (viii) branched alkenyl (ix) alkyl-alcohol group (x) amide or alkylamide wherein (a) the alkyl of the alkylamide is - CH2- or -CH2CH2-, (b) the amide is di-substituted and/or (c) the amide is substituted with at least one of a I kyl heterocycle group, al ke nyl heterocycle group, alkylheteroaryl group, alkenylheteroaryl group, heteroaryl group, alkylamine group, alkyloxyalkyl group, alkylaryl group, straight or branched alkyl group, (xi) -CHO so that R, together with R3 provide the enol tautomer (a); OR R1 together with R<3> form (xii) a pyrazole wherein (a) R<4> is =N-0-alkyl or =N-0-H group, (b) the pyrazole is substituted with one of alkyl-OH group, alkyl ester group, alkyloxyalkyl. group, branched alkyl group, and an amide and/or (c) the 2 position is substituted with a group selected from -OH and -0-hydrocarbyl (xiii) a heteroaryl ring to provide a compound of the formula (b); (II) R<2 >is selected from groups capable of forming a hydrogen bond, a sulphamate group, a phosphonate group, a thiophosphonate group, a sulphonate group and a sulphonamide group; and (III) R<3 >is selected from -OH, =O, or a -C(=O)- mimetic.
