Spiro piperidines and homologs which promote release of growth hormone
-
, (2008/06/13)
There are disclosed certain novel compounds identified as spiro piperidines and homologs which promote the release of growth hormone in humans and animals. This property can be utilized to promote the growth of food animals to render the production of edible meat products more efficient, and in humans, to treat physiological or medical conditions characterized by a deficiency in growth hormone secretion, such as short stature in growth hormone deficient children, and to treat medical conditions which are improved by the anabolic effects of growth hormone. Growth hormone releasing compositions containing such spiro compounds as the active ingredient thereof are also disclosed.

(4S)-1-Alkyl-3-acyl>-2-oxoimidazolidine-4-carboxylic acid derivatives (3) were prepared by two methods.Their angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activities and antihypertensive effects were evaluated, and the structure-activity relationships were discussed.The dicarboxylic acids 3a-n possessing S,S,S configuration showed potent in vitro ACE inhibitory activities with IC 50 values of 1.1x10-8-1.5x10-9 M.The most potent compound in this series, monoester 3p, had an ID 50 value of 0.24 mg/kg, po for inhibition of angiotensin I induced pressor response in normotensive rats and produced a dose-dependent decrease in systolic blood pressure of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) at doses of 1-10 mg/kg, po.
