each R B is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, optionally substituted aliphatic, optionally substituted carbocyclyl, optionally substituted heterocyclyl, optionally substituted aryl, and optionally substituted heteroaryl, or two R B groups are taken together with their intervening atoms to form an optionally substituted heterocyclic ring;

R 8 , R 9 , R 10 , and R 11 are independently hydrogen, halo, or optionally substituted aliphatic;

Cy is a monocyclic or bicyclic, saturated, partially unsaturated, or aromatic ring system having 1-4 heteroatoms independently selected from nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur, wherein Cy is substituted with 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 R y groups;

each R y is independently selected from the group consisting of halo, —CN, —NO 2 , optionally substituted aliphatic, optionally substituted carbocyclyl, optionally substituted aryl, optionally substituted heterocyclyl, optionally substituted heteroaryl, —OR A , —N(R B ) 2 , —SR A , —C(═O)R A , —C(O)OR A , —C(O)SR A , —C(O)N(R B ) 2 , —C(O)N(R B )N(R B ) 2 , —OC(O)R A , —OC(O)N(R B ) 2 , —NR B C(O)R A , —NR B C(O)N(R B ) 2 , —NR B C(O)N(R B )N(R B ) 2 , —NR B C(O)OR A , —SC(O)R A , —C(═NR B )R A , —C(═NNR B )R A , —C(═NOR A )R A , —C(═NR B )N(R B ) 2 , —NR B C(═NR B )R B , —C(═S)R A , —C(═S)N(R B ) 2 , —NR B C(═S)R A , —S(O)R A , —OS(O) 2 R A , —SO 2 R A , —NR B SO 2 R A , and —SO 2 N(R B ) 2 ; or an R y group may be optionally taken together with R 2 or R 3 to form an optionally substituted 5- to 6-membered carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring fused to Cy;

each R x is independently selected from the group consisting of halo, —CN, optionally substituted aliphatic, —OR′, and —N(R″) 2 ;
