The present invention aims at providing compounds having therapeutic effects due to a DPP-IV inhibitory action, and satisfactory as pharmaceutical products.
The present inventors have found that derivatives having a substituent introduced into the γ-position of proline represented by the formula (I)
wherein each symbol is as defined in the specification, have a potent DPP-IV inhibitory activity, and completed the present invention by increasing the stability.
Provided are methods for the preparation of certain substituted pyrrolidine compounds, forms of (2S,4R)-1-(2-aminoacetyl)-4-benzamidopyrrolidine-2-carboxylic acid hydrochloride, and methods for preparing and using these forms.
