each of Cy 1 and Cy 2 is independently phenyl; a 3-7 membered saturated or partially unsaturated monocyclic carbocyclic ring; a 6-12 membered bicyclic carbocyclic ring; a 3-7 membered saturated or partially unsaturated monocyclic heterocyclic ring having 1-2 heteroatoms independently selected from nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur; a 6-12 membered saturated or partially unsaturated bicyclic heterocyclic ring having 1-3 heteroatoms independently selected from nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur; or a 5-6 membered heteroaryl ring having 1-4 heteroatoms independently selected from nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur;

each instance of R 6 is independently hydrogen, —R 2 , halogen, —CN, —NO 2 , —OR, —SR, —NR 2 , —S(O) 2 R, —S(O) 2 NR 2 , —S(O)R, —C(O)R, —C(O)OR, —C(O)NR 2 , —C(O)N(R)OR, —OC(O)R, —OC(O)NR 2 , —N(R)C(O)OR, —N(R)C(O)R, —N(R)C(O)NR 2 , or —N(R)S(O) 2 R;
