Application Number:	14/311,825
Patent Claims:	1. A method of treatment of a malcondition in a patient having such malcondition, wherein the malcondition is multiple sclerosis, transplant rejection or adult respiratory distress syndrome, comprising administering to the patient an effective dose of a compound of formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, tautomer, or stereoisomer, thereof: ##STR00261## wherein a dashed line signifies that a single bond or a double bond can be present, provided that there are two double bonds and three single bonds in the ring comprising A.sup.1, A.sup.2, and A.sup.3; A.sup.1 and A.sup.3 are N and A.sup.2 is O; L.sup.1 and L.sup.2 are each independently a bond; J independently at each occurrence is F, Cl, Br, I, OR', OC(O)N(R').sub.2, CN, CF.sub.3, OCF.sub.3, R', methylenedioxy, ethylenedioxy, N(R').sub.2, SR', SOR', SO.sub.2R', SO.sub.2N(R').sub.2, SO.sub.3R', C(O)R', C(O)C(O)R', C(O)CH.sub.2C(O)R', C(S)R', C(O)OR', OC(O)R', OC(O)OR', C(O)N(R').sub.2, OC(O)N(R').sub.2, C(S)N(R').sub.2, (CH.sub.2).sub.0-2NHC(O)R', N(R')N(R')C(O)R', N(R')N(R')C(O)OR', N(R')N(R')CON(R').sub.2, N(R')SO.sub.2R', N(R')SO.sub.2N(R').sub.2, N(R')C(O)OR', N(R')C(O)R', N(R')C(S)R', N(R')C(O)N(R').sub.2, N(R')C(S)N(R').sub.2, N(COR')COR', N(OR')R', C(.dbd.NH)N(R').sub.2, C(O)N(OR')R', or C(.dbd.NOR')R', wherein R' is independently at each occurrence hydrogen or an alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, heterocyclyl, or heteroaryl wherein any alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, heterocyclyl or heteroaryl is substituted with 0-3 J; R.sup.5 a group of formula a-i ##STR00262## mono- or pluri-substituted with J, wherein a wavy line indicates a point of attachment; R.sup.6 is phenyl mono- or pluri-substituted with J. 2. The method of claim 1 wherein the malcondition is transplant rejection or adult respiratory distress syndrome. 3. The method of claim 1 wherein the malcondition is multiple sclerosis.
