So far, benzimidazole derivatives containing pyridine as represented by the Omeprazole, commercial name, have been commonly used for inhibitor of gastric acid secretion. Benzimidazole derivatives containing pyridine have displayed a prominent remedial result, but have raised a problem in long term administration because of their irreversible reaction mechanism. That is, there have been sustained effect of medicine after stopping administration or side effect of thickening stomach wall by administration, etc.

In addition, quinoline derivatives have been known as the inhibitor of gastric acid secretion of mammal, and there have been attempts to develop them as a reversible inhibitor of gastric acid secretion.
