Since it is thought that if the activity of MMP-13 can be inhibited, this will largely contribute to improvement or prevention of progession of pathological states, particularly, osteoarthritis (OA), resulting from or associated with the MMP-13 activity, the development of MMP-13 inhibitors is anticipated. There are provided a compound represented by the general formula (I):
wherein R
1
is optionally substituted aryl etc.; Z is C1-C5 alkylene which may be substituted and may be interrupted with a substituent selected from Substituent group a etc.; A is the formula:
(R
6
and R
7
are each independently halogen, lower alkyl etc.; m and n are each independently 0, 1, or 2); R
2
is a hydrogen atom, optionally substituted lower alkyl etc.; R
3
is a hydrogen atom, optionally substituted lower alkyl etc.; R
4
is a hydrogen atom; or R
3
and R
4
may be taken together with an adjacent carbon atom to from a ring; R
5
is hydroxy, lower alkyloxy etc.), or an optically active isomer, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or a solvate thereof, and a pharmaceutical composition containing it as an active ingredient, which has the MMP-13 inhibiting activity.
