1. A compound of the formula:

  • embedded imageand the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof,wherein each of Z1 and Z2 is independently CR4 or N;

    where each R4 is independently selected from the group consisting of H, alkyl (1-6C) and aryl, each of said alkyl and aryl optionally including one or more heteroatoms selected from O, S, and N and each of said alkyl being optionally substituted by one or more substituents selected from the group consisting of halo, OR, SR, NR2, RCO, COOR, CONR2, OOCR, NROCR, CN, ═

    O, a five- or six-membered saturated carbocyclic ring or heterocyclic ring containing 1-2 N, and a six-membered aromatic ring optionally containing 1-2 N, where R in the foregoing optional substituents is H or alkyl (1-6C) and each of said aryl being optionally substituted by one or more substituents selected from the group consisting of halo, OR, SR, NR2, RCO, COOR, CONR2, OOCR, NROCR, CN, a five- or six-membered saturated carbocyclic ring or heterocyclic ring containing 1-2 N, and a six-membered aromatic ring optionally containing 1-2 N, where R in the foregoing optional substituents is H or alkyl (1-6C);

    or R1 is embedded image

    wherein X1 is CO, SO, SO2 or CHOH;

    m is 1;

    Y is optionally substituted alkyl, optionally substituted aryl, or optionally substituted arylalkyl or two Y taken together may form an alkylene (2-3C) bridge;

    n is 0, 1 or 2;

    Z3 is N;

    X2 is CH, CH2 or an isostere thereof; and

    Ar consists of one or two phenyl moieties directly coupled to X2, said one or two phenyl moieties being optionally substituted by one or more substituents selected from the group consisting of halo, nitro, alkyl (1-6C), alkenyl (1-6C), alkynyl (1-6C), CN, CF3, RCO, COOR, CONR2, NR2, OR, SR, OOCR, NROCR; and

    phenyl, itself optionally substituted by one or more of the foregoing substituents, wherein R in the foregoing optional substituents is H or alkyl (1-6C);

    R2 is selected from the group consisting of H, alkyl (1-6C) and aryl, each of said alkyl or aryl optionally including one or more heteroatoms which are selected from O, S and N, and each of said alkyl being optionally substituted by one or more substituents selected from the group consisting of halo, OR, SR, NR2, RCO, COOR, CONR2, OOCR, NROCR, CN, ═

    O, a five- or six-membered saturated carbocyclic ring or heterocyclic ring containing 1-2 N, and a six-membered aromatic ring optionally containing 1-2 N, where R in the foregoing optional substituents is H or alkyl (1-6C) and each of said aryl being optionally substituted by one or more substituents selected from the group consisting of halo, OR, SR, NR2, RCO, COOR, CONR2, OOCR, NROCR, CN, a five- or six-membered saturated carbocyclic ring or heterocyclic ring containing 1-2 N, and a six-membered aromatic ring optionally containing 1-2 N, where R in the foregoing optional substituents is H or alkyl (1-6C) with the proviso that when both Z1 and Z2 are CH, R2 is other than H;

    R3 is selected from the group consisting of H, halo, NO2, alkyl (1-6C), alkenyl (1-6C), alkynyl (1-6C), CN, OR, SR, NR2, RCO, COOR, CONR2, OOCR, and NROCR where R is H or alkyl (1-6C).
