Abstract

There are provided compounds of formula I,

wherein R 1 to R 5 , X 1 , X 2 , Ar, L, E, A, A 1 , G and G 1 have meanings given in the description, which compounds have antiinflammatory activity (e.g. through inhibition of one or more of members of: the family of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase enzymes; Syk kinase; and members of the Src family of tyrosine kinases) and have use in therapy, including in pharmaceutical combinations, especially in the treatment of inflammatory diseases, including inflammatory diseases of the lung, eye and intestines.

or R 4 and R 5 , together with the C-atoms to which they are attached, form a fused phenyl or Het 2 ring, which latter two rings are optionally substituted by one or more substituents selected from the group consisting of C 1-3 alkyl, C 1-3 haloalkyl, cyano and halo;
