Abstract

Disclosed herein are compounds of the formula: EQU A--N(R.sup.1)C(O)CH.sub.2 CHR.sup.2 C(O)--B wherein A is various oxygen-bearing radicals; for example, HO--CH(R.sup.3)CH.sub.2 wherein R.sup.3 is, inter alia, hydrogen, lower alkyl, lower cycloalkyl or phenyl; or HO--CR.sup.5 (R.sup.6)CH.sub.2 wherein each of R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 is lower alkyl, or R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 together with the carbon atom to which they are attached form a 1,1-(lower cycloalkanediyl); R.sup.1 is, for example, benzyl, alkyl or a substituted alkyl such as cyclohexylmethyl; R.sup.2 is, for example, cyclo-alkylmethyl, 1H-imidazol-4-ylmethyl, 4-thiazolylmethyl or (2-amino-4-thiazolyl)methyl; and B is a renin substrate transition state mimic, for example, [1(S)-(cyclohexylmethyl)-2(R),3(S)-dihydroxy-5-methylhexyl]amino. The compounds inhibit renin activity and are indicated for the treatment of hypertension and congestive heart failure.
