Compounds of formula (I): STR1 A is a carbon-carbon bond or C 1-C 3 alkylene; B is imino group or C 1-C 2 alkylene; R 1 is C 1-C 4 alkyl, C 1-C 4 alkoxy, heterocyclic or optionally substituted amino; R 2 is optionally substituted phenyl or optionally substituted naphthyl; R 3 is thiazolyl, isoxazolyl or imidazolyl; R 4 is isopropyl or cyclohexyl; R 5 and R 6 are C. sub.1-C 4 alkyl, or, together with the carbon atom to which they are attached, C 3-C 7 cycloalkyl; R. sup.7 is hydrogen, optionally substituted C 1-C 6 alkyl group; and R 8 is hydrogen or C. sub.1-C 4 alkyl. These compounds have renin-inhibitory and, hence, hypotensive activities. The invention also provides a method for the treatment or prophylaxis of hypertension induced by failures in the renin-angiotensin system.
