Compounds of formula I ##STR1## wherein Q.sup.1, Q.sup.2, Q.sup.3, and Q.sup.4 have any of the meanings given in the specification, their N-oxides, and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts are nonpeptide antagonists Substance P and NKA, useful for the treatment of asthma, etc. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions, processes for preparing the compounds of formula I and intermediates.

Therapeutic neurokinin receptor antagonist compounds

The present invention relates to particular forms of a novel 1-substituted-N-[2-methyl-1-(trifluoroacetyl)propyl]pyrrolidine-2-carboxam ide which are inhibitors of human leukocyte elastase (HLE), also known as human neutrophil elastase (HNE), making them useful whenever such inhibition is desired, such as for research tools in pharmacological, diagnostic and related studies and in the treatment of diseases in mammals in which HLE is implicated. The invention also includes pharmaceutical compositions containing such forms, processes for preparing the forms and intermediates useful in the synthesis of the forms.
