R 4 is selected from H, OH, C 1-8 alkyl, OC 1-8 alkyl, and halo;
R 5 is selected from H, OH, CN, nitro, C 1-8 alkyl, OC 1-8 alkyl, and halo;
R 6 is selected from H, OH, CN, OC 1-8 alkyl, methyl, ethyl, propyl and butyl;
X is selected from the group consisting of O, or NH, wherein when X is O, R 6 is other than OH; and
the bond represented by a broken line and a solid line is an optional double bond.
2. A compound of Formula (I):
or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form thereof,
wherein R 1 is
R 2 and R 3 , together with the atoms to which they are attached, form a seven-membered ring structure where one or more of the atoms forming the ring are oxygen;
R 4 is selected from H, OH, C 1-8 alkyl, OC 1-8 alkyl, and halo;
R 5 is selected from H, OH, CN, nitro, C 1-8 alkyl, OC 1-8 alkyl, and halo;
R 6 is selected from H, OH, CN, OC 1-8 alkyl, methyl, ethyl, propyl and butyl;
X is selected from the group consisting of O, or NH, wherein when X is O, R 6 is other than OH; and
the bond represented by a broken line and a solid line is an optional double bond.
3. A compound according to claim 1 , wherein R 1 is —C(═O) OH.
4. A compound according to claim 3 , wherein the bond represented by a broken line and a solid line is a double bond.
5. A compound according to claim 1 , wherein R 4 and R 5 are each independently H.
6. A compound according to claim 1 , wherein R 4 is OH and R 5 is H.
7. A compound according to claim 1 , wherein R 4 is OCH 3 and R 5 is H.
8. A compound according to claim 1 , wherein R 4 is OH and R 5 is OH.
9. A compound according to claim 1 , wherein R 4 is H and R 5 is OH.
10. A compound selected from:
