Abstract

The invention provides acid addition salts of the compounds represented by formula (1) or (2), or crystals thereof, and processes for preparing the same. The salts or crystals have HGFR inhibitory activity and excellent physical properties (solubility, safety, etc.) and are therefore useful as anti-tumor agents, angiogenesis inhibitors and inhibitors for metastasis for a various types of tumor.
