A method and a composition for treating or reducing and/or controlling intraocular pressure comprising administering an effective amount of a renin inhibiting compound of the formula: STR1 where A is a substituent; W is CO or CHOH and U is CH2 or NR2 wherein R2 is hydrogen or loweralkyl; with the proviso that when W is CHOH then U is Ch2 ; R1 is loweralkyl, cycloalkyl methyl, benzyl, (alpha, alpha)-dimethylbenzyl, 4-hydroxybenzyl, 4-methoxybenzyl, halobenzyl, (1-naphthyl)methyl, (2-naphthyl)methyl, 1-bezyloxyethyl, phenethyl, phenoxy, thiophenoxy or anilino; R3 is loweralkyl, loweralkenyl, ((alkoxy)alkoxy)loweralkyl, (thioalkoxy)alkyl, benzyl or heterocyclic ring substituted methyl; and R4 is substituted hydroxyalkyamino.

Substituted 1,3- and 1,4-diamines were prepared from epoxides derived from Boc-leucine or Boc-cyclohexylalanine. These diamines were incorporated into renin inhibitors (IC50 = 4-1500 nM) replacing the Leu-Val scissile bond in small peptide analogues of angiotensinogen. Replacement of the P2 histidine imidazole with other heterocycles maintained or enhanced binding while changing the overall basicity of the inhibitor. Finally, substitution of O-methyltyrosine for the P3 phenylalanine suppressed chymotrypsin cleavage of the P3-P2 bond.
