An efficient deoxygenative radical cyclization reaction has been reported for the synthesis of fluorenones by employing various biarylcarboxylic acids via photoredox catalysis. Attractive features of this process include generation of acyl radical, which quickly underdone intramolecular radical cyclization. This method marks the first photocatalytic intramolecular acyl radical coupling for constructing carbon-carbon bond, which further synthesizes the valuable fluorenone products with mild conditions, good yields, and good functional-group compatibility.

[Problem] The present invention has an object to provide a compound having a GPR40 agonistic activity, which is useful as a pharmaceutical composition, an insulin secretion promoter, or an agent for preventing/treating diabetes. [Means for Solution] The present inventors have extensively studied a compound having a GPR40 agonistic activity, and as a result, they have found that the compound (I) of the present invention or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, in which a carboxylic acid is bonded to a bicyclic or tricyclic moiety through methylene, and further, a benzene ring substituted with a monocyclic 6-membered aromatic ring is bonded to a bicyclic or tricyclic moiety through —O-methylene or —NH-methylene, has an excellent GPR40 agonistic activity. They have also found that the compound has an excellent insulin secretion promoting action and strongly inhibits increase in the blood glucose after glucose loading, thereby completing the present invention.
