Resumo

The design and synthesis of new truncated δ-amino hydroxyethylene dipeptide isosteres lacking the P4-P2 peptide backbone is described. The most active compounds 15c and 30c inhibited human renin in the submicromolar range. This promising concept may offer the possibility to discover completely non-peptide, lowmolecular weight renin inhibitors with improved pharmacokinetic properties.
