Abstract

Vasopressin antagonists which have a dipeptide tail composed of a neutral and basic amino acid unit demonstrate potent V.sub.1 and V.sub.2 -antagonist activity. Two species of this invention, which are prepared by solid phase peptide synthesis, are [1-(.beta.-mercapto-.beta.,.beta.-cyclopentamethylene propionic acid)-2-(O-ethyl)-D-tyrosine-4-valine-7-tyrosine-8-arginine-9-desglycine]- vasopressin and [1-(.beta.-mercapto-.beta.,.beta.-cyclopentamethylenepropionic acid)-2-(O-ethyl)-D-tyrosine-4-valine-7-arginine-8-tyrosine-9-desglycine]- vasopressin.
