1. A method for the treatment of dry eye in a mammal, which comprises topically administering to the eye of the mammal a composition comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and a pharmaceutically effective amount of a compound of formula I:

  • embedded image R1 is CO2R, CH2OR2, CONR3R4, or CO2

    R+;

    R is H, C1-C6 alkyl, C3-C6 alkenyl, C3-C6 alkynyl, C3-C6 cycloalkyl, or phenyl;

    R+ is Li+, Na+, K+, or an ammonium moiety of formula +NR5R6R7R8, where R5, R6, R7, and R8 are independently H or C1-C6 alkyl, each alkyl group optionally bearing an OH or OCH3 substituent;

    R2 is H, C(O)R9, C1-C6 alkyl, C3-C6 alkenyl, C3-C6 alkynyl, C3-C6 cycloalkyl, benzyl, or phenyl, where R9 is H, C1-6 alkyl, C3-C6 alkenyl, C3-C6 alkynyl, C3-C6 cycloalkyl, benzyl, or phenyl;

    R3 and R4 are independently H, C1-C6 alkyl, C3-C6 alkenyl, C3-C6 alkynyl, C3-C6 cycloalkyl, H, benzyl, phenyl, OH, OCH3, or OC2H5, provided that at most only one of R3 and R4 is OH, OCH3, or OC2H5;

    G is CH2, O, or S;

    Z is CH2CH═

    CH, CH═

    CHCH2, CH2C≡

    C, C≡

    CCH2, (CH2)3, or CH═

    C═

    CH when G is CH2, and is CH═

    CHCH2, C≡

    CCH2, or (CH2)3 when G is O or S;

    A and D are independently CH2CH2, CH═

    CH, or C≡

    C, provided that if A is CH2CH2, then D is not CH2CH2;

    X is C═

    O or CR10R11;

    R10 is H or CH3;

    R11 is H, C1-C6 alkyl, C3-C6 alkenyl, C3-C6 alkynyl, C3-C6 cycloalkyl, phenyl, benzyl, or C(O)R12, where R12 is H, C1-C6 alkyl, C3-C6 alkenyl, C3-C6 alkynyl, C3-C6 cycloalkyl, phenyl, or benzyl;

    Y is n-C5H11, C(CH3)H-n-C4H9, C(CH3)2-n-C4H9, (CH2)pPh, or (CH2)pOPh;

    p is 1-3;

    Ph is a phenyl ring, optionally substituted with halogen, trihalogenated methyl, methyl, OR13, or C(O)CH3, where R13 is H, CH3, C2H5, C(O)CH3, or phenyl; and

    Halogen is Cl, I, Br, or F.
