ring D is a 6 membered aryl, or heteroaryl ring and substituted by 1-4 R 20 moieties;

R 20 moieties can be the same or different, each being independently selected from the group consisting of H, halogen, and amino;

Y is selected from the group consisting of: —CH 2 —, and —C(═O)—;

m is 1; and

n is 0.

12. A compound selected from the group consisting of the following:

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

13. A compound according to claim 12 , wherein the compound is selected from the group consisting of

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
