The proline ring of the one-ring or two-ring system G is preferably unsubstituted or substituted with an R.sub.3 group which is preferably --OH or alkyl containing 1 to 6 carbon atoms.
When the chain connecting the moiety M to the ring includes a --(CH.sub.2).sub.i -linkage where i is non-zero, one of the carbon atoms of that linkage can be substituted with a straight-chained or branched alkyl group of up to 6 carbon atoms. Preferred connecting chains Z include those attached at the ring G by a double bond; --NH--; --NHSO.sub.2 --; --NHC(O)--; --CH.sub.2 NHC(O)--; --NHNHC())--; --N(CH.sub.3) CH.sub.2 --; --OCH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 --; --CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 --; --N(CH.sub.3)CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 --; and --NHC(O)CH.sub.2.

The alkyl groups in general include straight-chained and branched groups, including methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl, tert-butyl, amyl, iso-amyl, hexyl, and the like. By "halogen" is meant chloro, bromo, iodo, and fluoro.
Preferred substituents for R.sub.1 and/or R.sub.2 also include cycloalkyl groups, aryl groups, heterocyclic groups, and fused aryl-cycloalkyl groups, as defined herein. The preferred cycloalkyl groups include cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, cycloheptyl, adamantyl, or norbornyl. The preferred aryl and fused aryl-cycloalkyl groups include phenyl, indolyl, indolinyl, indanyl, naphthyl, tetrahydronaphthyl, and decahydronaphthyl. Preferred heterocyclic groups include pyridyl, quinolyl, isoquinolyl, tetrahydroquinolyl, tetrahydroisoquinolyl, decahydroquinolyl, decahydroisoquinolyl, pyrrolidyl, pyrrolyl, morpholinyl, furyl, tetrahydrofuryl, furfuryl, benzimidazolyl, thienyl, and imidazolyl.

Compounds according to formula (1) can contain asymmetric centers at the carbon atoms marked thus: C*. Each of these carbon atoms can have an (R) or an (S) configuration, and preferably (S). Individual optical diastereoisomers as well as mixtures thereof are considered to be within the scope of this invention. When diastereoisomeric products result from the synthetic procedures, the desired diastereoisomeric product can be separated by conventional chromatographic or fractional crystallization methods.
The compounds of formula (1) can be prepared by coupling compounds of formulas (2) and (3) ##STR8## in which the substituents on ring G, including Z, are previously present or are subsequently attached. The various substituents on compounds (2) and (3) have been defined above.
It will be recognized by those skilled in this art that the coupling of compounds (2) and (3) can be carried out by conventional peptide linkage techniques, e.g. in the presence of a coupling agent such as DCC (N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide) or CDI (N,N'-carbonyldiimidazole). Alternatively, one may prefer to convert the --COOH group of compound (2) to --C(O)Cl, and then react the resulting intermediate with compound (3). Alternatively one may preferably convert the compound (2) to the corresponding N-carboxyanhydride (NCA) by allowing (2) to react with phosgene, and then react the resulting N-carboxyanhydride with compound (3) to yield the desired intermediate. It will further be recognized that the nitrogen atom which is between the carbon atoms to which R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are attached can be protected with a blocking group such as 2,2,2-trichloroethoxycarbonyl or benzyloxycarbonyl. The protecting group is subsequently removed, preferably after compounds (2) and (3) have been joined together. Other nitrogen atoms, in substituents such as NH.sub.2 (CH.sub.2).sub.4 --, should be protected and then deprotected in a similar manner. Similarly, Y.sub.1 and Y.sub.2 are preferably converted to ethoxy, t-butoxy, or benzyloxy, before the intermediates are reacted. If the free acid is desired, it is subsequently obtained by removal of the esterifying group in a known manner.
The compounds of the present invention in which one of Y.sub.1 and Y.sub.2 is --OH and the other is alkoxy, such as methoxy or ethoxy, are preferably made by reacting compounds (2) and (3) as shown above in which one of Y.sub.1 and Y.sub.2 is the desired alkyl ester, and the other is an easily cleaved ester group such as t-butoxy. The amide intermediate thus prepared yields upon a mild acid hydrolysis the desired monoester-monoacids.
When Q contains sulfur, the preferred synthetic route is via the acid chloride.
The compounds of this invention form salts with various inorganic and organic acids and bases which are also within the scope of the invention. Such salts include ammonium salts, alkali metal salts like sodium and potassium salts (which are preferred), alkaline earth metal salts like the calcium and magnesium salts, salts with organic bases e.g., dicyclohexylamine salts, N-methyl-D-glucamine, salts with amino acids like arginine, lysine and the like. Also, salts with organic and inorganic acids may be prepared, e.g., HCl, HBr, H.sub.2 SO.sub.4, H.sub.3 PO.sub.4, as well as methanesulfonic, toluenesulfonic, maleic, acetic, malic, citric, fumaric and camphorsulfonic acids. The non-toxic physiologically acceptable salts are preferred, although other salts are also useful, e.g., in isolating or purifying the product.
The salts may be formed by conventional means, as by reacting the free acid or free base forms of the product with one or more equivalents of the appropriate base or acid in a solvent or medium in which the salt is insoluble, or in a solvent such as water which is then removed in vacuo or by freeze-drying, or by exchanging the cations of an existing salt for another cation on a suitable ion exchange resin.
The action of the enzyme renin on angiotensinogen, a pseudoglobulin in blood plasma, produces the decapeptide angiotensin I. Angiotensin I is converted by angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) to the octapeptide angiotensin II. The latter is an active pressor substance which has been implicated as the causative agent in various forms of hypertension in various mammalian species, e.g., rats and dogs. The compounds within the scope of this invention which intervene in the renin --to--angiotensin I --to-- angiotensin II sequence inhibit angiotensin I converting enzyme and therefore are useful in reducing or relieving hypertension.
Furthermore, the compounds within the scope of the present invention which possess diuretic activity promote relief from hypertension by promoting diuresis, and consequently have utility in treating congestive heart failure. Compounds within the scope of this invention can also simultaneously possess ACE inhibitory and diuretic activity, which is particularly unexpected in view of the fact that such simultaneous activity cannot be predicted from prior art compounds. Thus by the administration of a composition containing one or a combination of compounds of formula (1) or pharmaceutically-acceptable salts thereof, hypertension in the species of mammal suffering therefrom is alleviated. A single dose, or preferably two to four divided daily doses, provided on a basis of about 0.1 to 100 mg per kilogram per day, preferably about 1 to 50 mg per kilogram per day, is appropriate to reduce blood pressure. The substance is preferably administered orally, but a parenteral route such as subcutaneously, intramuscularly, intravenously or intraperitoneally can also be employed.
The compounds of this invention are also indicated for use in reducing intraocular pressure, i.e. for treating glaucoma. This effect is obtained by administering the amounts indicated above to a host in need of such treatment.
The compounds of the invention can be utilized by formulating one or more of them in compositions such as tablets, capsules or elixirs for oral administration or in sterile solutions or suspensions for parenteral administration. About 10 to 500 mg of a compound or mixture of compounds of formula (1) or physiologically acceptable salt(s) thereof is compounded with a physiologically acceptable vehicle, carrier, excipient, binder, preservative, stabilizer, flavor, etc., in a unit dosage form as called for by accepted pharmaceutical practice. The amount of active substance in these compositions or preparations is such that a suitable dosage in the range indicated is obtained.
Illustrative of the adjuvants which may be incorporated in tablets, capsules and the like are the following: a binder such as gum tragacanth, acacia, corn starch or gelatin; an excipient such as dicalcium phosphate; a disintegrating agent such as corn starch, potato starch, alginic acid and the like; a lubricant such as magnesium stearate; a sweetening agent such as sucrose, lactose or saccharin; a flavoring agent such as peppermint, oil of wintergreen or cherry. When the dosage unit form is a capsule, it may contain in addition to materials of the above type a liquid carrier such as a fatty oil. Various other materials may be present as coatings or to otherwise modify the physical form of the dosage unit. For instance, tablets may be coated with shellac, sugar or both. A syrup or elixir may contain the active compound, sucrose as a sweetening agent, methyl and propyl parabens as preservatives, a dye and a flavoring such as cherry or orange flavor.
Sterile compositions for injection can be formulated according to conventional pharmaceutical practice by dissolving or suspending the active substance in a vehicle such as water for injection, a naturally occurring vegetable oil like sesame oil, coconut oil, peanut oil, cottonseed oil, etc., or a synthetic fatty vehicle like ethyl oleate, or the like. Buffers, preservatives, antioxidants and the like can be incorporated as required.
