- Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitors. New Orally Active Antihypertensive (Mercaptoalkanoyl)- and glycine Derivatives
-
A variety of N-substituted (mercaptoalkanoyl)- and glycine derivatives was synthesized and their ability in inhibiting the activity of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) was examined in vitro and in vivo.The acylthio derivatives prepared are assumed to act as prodrugs since they are much less active than the corresponding free SH compounds in vitro and can be expected to act in vivo only after conversion to the free sulfhydryl compounds.A number of this compounds are potent ACE inhibitors that lowered blood pressure in Na-deficient, conscious spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), a high renin model.One of the most active members of the series was (S)-N-cyclopentyl-N--2-methyl-1-oxopropyl>glycine (REV 3659-(S), pivopril).Structure-activity relationships are discussed.

- Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors: N-substituted monocyclic and bicyclic amino acid derivatives

The synthesis of N-(3-mercaptopropionyl)-N-arylglycines (14a-x), -N-arylalanines (15a,b), -N-cycloalkylglycines (16a-k), and -1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline-3-carboxylic acids (17a-d), -1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline-2-carboxylic acids (18a-f), and -indoline-2-carboxylic acids (19a-k) is described. In vitro inhibition of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) is reported for each compound, and the structure-activity relationship for each series is discussed. The in vivo inhibition of ACE and antihypertensive effects of representative compounds from each series are discussed. The most potent compound, 19d, had an in vitro ACE IC50 of 2.6 x 10-9 M and lowered blood pressure in spontaneous hypertensive rats 85 mm at a dose of 10 mg/kg po.
