... in which phenyl and heteroaryl can be substituted by halogen (independently from one another) up


Explanation:
This means you can substitute halogens for up to three phenyls.
You can also substitute halogens for up to three heteroaryls.
... or any combination of such substitutions.
e.g. substitute phenyl1 and phenyl2 by halogen1 and halogen2
*and* substitute heteroaryl1 and heteroaryl2 and heteroaryl3 by halogen3 and halogen4 and halogen5.
