each R 4 is, independently, halogen, hydroxyl, optionally substituted C 1 -C 6 alkyl, optionally substituted C 1 -C 6 heteroalkyl, or two R 4 combine with the carbon two which they are attached to form a carbonyl or optionally substituted C 3 -C 7 cycloalkyl;

R 5 is optionally substituted C 6 -C 10 aryl, optionally substituted C 2 -C 9 heteroaryl, optionally substituted C 2 -C 9 heterocycle, or optionally substituted C 2 -C 9 heteroaryl C 1 -C 6 alkyl; and

each R 6 is, independently, hydrogen, halogen, hydroxy, optionally substituted C 1 -C 6 heteroalkyl, or optionally substituted C 1 -C 6 alkyl.

161 . A method of inhibiting toxicity in a cell related to a protein, the method comprising administering an effective amount of a compound, or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, having the structure of Formula Ia:

wherein B is absent or has the structure:
