Abstract: The invention provides compounds of the formula (I): or salts, tautomers, solvates and N-oxides thereof, wherein R1 is hydroxy or hydrogen; R2 is hydroxy; methoxy or hydrogen; provided that at least one of R1 and R2 is hydroxy; R3 is selected from hydrogen; halogen; cyano; optionally substituted C1-5 hydrocarbyl and optionally substituted C1-5 hydrocarbyloxy; R4 is selected from hydrogen; a group —(O)n—R7 where n is 0 or 1 and R7 is an optionally substituted acyclic C1-5 hydrocarbyl group or a monocyclic carbocyclic or heterocyclic group having 3 to 7 ring members; halogen; cyano; hydroxy; amino; and optionally substituted mono- or di-C1-5 hydrocarbyl-amino; or R3 and R4 together form a monocyclic carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring of 5 to 7 ring members; and NR5R6 forms an optionally substituted bicyclic heterocyclic group having 8 to 12 ring members of which up to 5 ring members are heteroatoms selected from oxygen, nitrogen and sulphur. The compounds have activity as Hsp90 inhibitors.

Abstract: Compounds having the formula (I): and in particular, those of subgenus VIIa are disclosed as inhibits or modulators of the activity of the heat shock protein Hsp90. As such they are useful for treating cancer, particularly hematopoietic tumors of lymphoid or myeloid lineage, prostate cancer, lung cancer, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, breast cancer and melanoma.

Abstract: The invention provides compounds of the formula (1): The compounds have activity against cyclin depdenent kinases, glycogen synthase kinase and Auroa kinases and are therefore useful to treat cancer and viral diseases.
