Six novel potential renin inhibitors have been designed and synthesized. All these inhibitors contained an unnatural aminoalkanoyl moiety at the central position P-1-P-1' of the molecule, which is attacked by renin. The moiety consists of pseudodipeptidic units, transition state analogues of a natural dipeptide of the parent substance: 4-amino-3-hydroxybutanoic acid (AHBA), 4-amino-5-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-3-hydroxypentanoic acid (AEPHPA), 4-amino-5-cyclohexyl-3-hydroxypentanoic acid (ACHPA) or 4-amino-3-hydroxynonanoic acid (AHNA). An unnatural moiety, 4-methoxyphenylalanylhistydyl (Phe(4-OMe)-His) has been introduced at the P-3-P-2 position of the obtained compounds. Five compounds contain isoamylamide of 6-aminohexanoic acid (epsilon-Ahx-laa) at the P-2'-P-3' position. One of designed inhibitors has been obtained in the form of an ethyl ester. The in vitro renin inhibitory activity of all synthesized compounds is contained within the range 10(-6) - 10(-8) M. The compound in the form of an ethyl ester has proven to be the most active (IC50 =1.3 x 10(-8) M) but also susceptible to enzymatic degradation. The other five inhibitors were stable to chymotrypsin.
