[Generic Diphenylmethyl heterocycle.
R1 = H, alkyl, alkoxy, haloalkyl or halide;
R2 = H, alkyl, hydroxyalkyl or hydroxy;
RN = piperidine, pyrrolidine, azepane, morpholine or pyridine.

The heterocycle nitrogen may have an alkyl, alkenyl, haloalkyl or hydroxyalkyl substituent, though it is unclear if this applies to pyridine where nitorgen is fully engaged by the ring.]
