RENIN INHIBITING PEPTIDES THAT CONTAIN AMINO AND HYDROXY DICARBOXYLIC ACIDS DESCRIPTION BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides novel compounds. More particu- larly, the present invention provides novel renin-inhibiting peptide analogs. Most particularly, the present invention provides renin- inhibitory amino and hydroxy dicarboxylic acid derivatives and having transition state inserts. The renin inhibitors provided herein are useful for the diagnosis and control of renin-dependent hypertension and other related diseases.
Renin is an endopeptidase which specifically cleaves a particular peptide bond of its substrate (angiotensinogen), of which the N-ter- minal sequence in equine substrate is for example: Renin
↓ Asp-Arg-Val-Tyr-Ile-His-Pro-Phe-His-Leu-Leu-Val-Tyr-Ser- IA
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14
as found by L. T. Skeggs et al, J. Exper. Med. 106, 439 (1957). Human renin substrate has a different sequence as recently discovered by D. A. Tewkesbury et al, Biochem. Biophys. Res. Comm. 99, 1311 (1981). It may be represented as follows:
Renin ↓ -Val-Ile-His-
11 12 13 IB
and having the sequence to the left of the arrow (↓) being as designated in formula IA above.
Renin cleaves angiotensinogen to produce angiotensin I, which is converted to the potent pressor angiotensin II. A number of angiotensin I converting enzyme inhibitors are known to be useful in the treatment of hypertension. Inhibitors of renin are also useful in the treatment of hypertension.

Pharmacologically acceptable amine cations are those derived from primary, secondary, or tertiary amines.
The novel peptides herein contain both natural and synthetic amino acid residues. These residues are depicted using standard amino acid abbreviations (see, e.g., Eur. J. Biochem., 138, 9 (1984)) unless otherwise indicated.
In addition to the treatment of warm-blooded animals such as mice, rats, horses, dogs, cats, etc., the compounds of the invention are effective in the treatment of humans.
The renin inhibitors of this invention are useful for treating an medical condition for which it is beneficial to reduce the levels o active circulating renin. Examples of such conditions include renin- associated hypertension and hyperaldosteronism, hypertension, hypertension under treatment with another antihypertensive and/or a diuretic agent, congestive heart failure, angina, and post-myocardial infarction. The renin-angiotension system may play a role in maintenance of intracellular homeostasis: see Clinical and Experimental Hypertension, 86, 1739-1742 (1984) at page 1740 under Discussion. Procedures for determining the renin-inhibiting activity of peptides are described in co-pending application Serial No. 825,250 filed February 3, 1986 which is hereby expressly incorporated by reference.
Further, the renin inhibitors of this invention may be useful in the treatment of cerebrovascular disorders and disorders of intracellular homeotasis. The possible role of the renin-angiotensin system in the maintenance of intracellular homeostasis is disclosed in Clinical and Experimental Hypertension, 86:1739-1742 (1984). Additionally, the renin inhibitors of this invention potentiate the antithrombotic activity of a thromboxane antagonist (U.S. patent 4,558,037). The antihypertensive effect of the renin inhibitors of this invention are potentiated by combination with a thromboxane synthetase inhibitor.
The compounds of the present invention are preferably orally administered to humans to effect renin inhibition for the purpose of favorably affecting blood pressure. For this purpose, the compounds are administered from 0.1 mg to 100 mg per kg per dose, administered from 1 to 4 times daily. The compounds of the present invention are preferably orally administered in the form of pharmacologically acceptable acid addition salts. Preferred pharmacologically acceptable salts for oral administration include the citrate and aspartate salts, although any pharmacologically acceptable salt is useful in this invention, including those listed above. These salts may be in hydrated or solvated form.
Other routes of administration include parenteral, by inhalation spray, or rectally in dosage unit formulations containing conventional non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, adjuvants and vehicles. The term parenteral as used herein includes subcutaneous injections, intravenous, intramuscular, intrasternal injection or infusion techniques.
The pharmaceutical compositions may be in the form of a sterile injectable preparation, for example as a sterile injectable aqueous or oleagenous suspension. This suspension may be formulated according to the known art using suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspend¬ing agents. The sterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectable solution or suspension in a non-toxic parenterally-accept¬able diluent or solvent, for example as a solution in 1,3-butanediol. Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that may be employed are water, Ringer's solution and isotonic sodium chloride solution. In addition, sterile, fixed oils are conventionally employed as a solvent or suspending medium. For this purpose any bland fixed oil may be employed including synthetic mono- or diglycerides. In addition, fatty acids such as oleic acid find use in the preparation of injectables.
Equivalent dosages for such other routes of administration are thus employed. The exact dose depends on the age, weight, and condition of the patient and on the frequency and route of administration. Such variations are within the skill of the practitioner or can readily be determined.
The compounds of the present invention may be in the form of pharmaceutically acceptable salts both those which can be produced from the free bases by methods well known in the art and those with which acids have pharmacologically acceptable conjugate bases.
Conventional forms and means for administering renin-inhibiting compounds may be employed and are described, e.g., in U.S. Patent No. 4,424,207 which is incorporated by reference herein. Likewise, the amounts disclosed in the U.S. Patent No. 4,424,207 are examples applicable to the compounds of the present invention.

The compounds of the present invention are prepared as depicted in the charts and as described more fully in the Preparations and Examples. In the charts, Ph is used to represent the phenyl ring.
Charts A, B, C and D illustrate the preparation of compounds of this invention wherein aspartic or glutamic acid residues are used as
the P2 replacement in renin inhibitory peptides. Chart A
In step (a) a Nα-Boc protected form of amino acid alcohol such as ch-val-alcohol acid derivative is coupled with a derivative amino acid utilizing standard coupling procedures to yield peptide A-1. In step (b) the Nα-Boc moiety is then removed by reacting a solution of A-1 in diethyl ether with HCL gas to yield the peptide A-2. In step (c) A-2 is coupled with a derivative amino acid utilizing diisopropylethyl amine and DEPC to give peptide A-3. In step (d) the peptide A-3 the Nα alpha-Boc moiety is removed utilizing trifluroacetic acid to yield the free amine A-4. In step (e) the amine A-4 is converted to peptide A-5 by reacting it with an appropriately substituted carboxylic acid in the presence of diisopropylethyl amine and DEPC. In step (f) a suspension of peptide A-5 in a solvent, for example, demethylformamide, is reacted with palladium on carbon and ammonium formate to yield the desired compound A-6. Chart B
In step (a) a Nα-Boc protected form of an amino acid alcohol, such as cha-val-alcohol is coupled with a simple amine utilizing standard coupling procedures to yield peptide B-1 wherein Mba is methylbutylamine. In step (b) the Nα-Boc moiety is then removed by reacting a solution of B-1 in diethyl ether with HCL gas to yield the peptide B-2. In step (c) B-2 is coupled with a derivative aspartic or glutamic acid utilizing diisopropylethyl amine and DEPC to give peptide B-3. In step (d) the benzyl moiety of peptide B-3 is removed by contacting the peptide with hydrogen in the presence of a palladium/carbon catalyst to yield compound B-4. Chart C
In step (a) Nα-Boc protected aspartic or glutamic acid derivative is coupled with leu-val-alcohol-containing fragment utilizing standard coupling procedures to yield peptide C-1. In step (b) the Nα-Boc moiety is removed by reacting a solution of C-1 in dichloromethane with triflouroacetic acid yield the peptide C-2. In step (c) C-2 is coupled with a substituted acetic acid utilizing diisopropylethyl amine and DEPC to give peptide C-3. In step (d) the acid protecting group is removed by contacting a solution of C-3 in a solvent, such as dimethylformamide, with palladium on carbon and ammonium formate to yield C-4.
CHART D
Chart D illustrates a process that is similar to the one illustrated in Chart C. Different amine is coupled in step (a) and that removal of the benzy group in step (d) is accomplished by the use of hydrogen gas rather than ammonium formate. CHART E
Chart E illustrates the preparation of compounds wherein malic acid residues are used as a P2(subscript) replacement in renin inhibitory peptide. In step (a) amide E-1 is reacted with trifluoracetic acid to yield the free amine E-2. Amides of the type exemplified by E-1 are commercially available or can be made by methods well known in the art. For example by the method of step (b) of Chart B. In step (b) E-2 is then reacted with benzyl S-malate in the presence of diisopropyl ethyl amine and DEPC to yield the alcohol E-3. In step (c) the alcohol E-3 is converted to peptide E-4 by reacting it with the appropriately substituted acyl chloride in the presence of DMAP. In step (d) peptide E-4 is deprotected to yield peptide E-5. In step (e) peptide E-5 is deesterified by reacting it with hydrogen, carbon and ammonium formate to yield the compound E-6.
The individual steps illustrated in the charts are procedures that are well known in the art. Also, the starting materials are readily available or can be made by methods well known in the art.
The derivative amino acids are incorporated into a peptide using standard coupling procedures. Should the peptide exist in a protected form, the protecting groups are removed prior to coupling. For example, a Boc group is removed from an N-terminus with trifluoroacetic acid in methylene chloride and then the derivative acid is introduced. After coupling, any remaining protecting groups are removed under standard conditions. For example a tosyl group is removed from histidine using 1-hydroxybenzotriazole in methanol.
Generally, the renin inhibiting polypeptides may be prepared by either polymer assisted or solution phase peptide synthetic procedures analogous to those described hereinafter or to those methods known in the art. For example, the carboxylic moiety of Nα-t-butyloxycarbonyl (Boc)-substituted amino acid derivatives having suitable side chain protecting groups, if necessary, may be condensed with the amino functionality of a suitably protected amino acid, peptide or polymer
bound peptide using a conventional coupling protocol such as dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) and 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBT) or diethylphosphoryl cyanide (DEPC) and triethylamine (Et3N) in methylene chloride or dimethylformamide. The synthetic procedures used to incorporate the novel moieties herein are analogous to those described, for example, in U.S. patents 4,424,207; 4,470,971; 4,477,440; 4,477,441; 4,478,826; 4,478,827; 4,479,941; and 4,485,099, and co-pending application Serial No. 753,198 filed 9 July 1985, and co-pending application Serial No. 825,250 filed 3 February 1986, all of which are expressly incorporated by reference herein. See, also, published European patent applications 45,161; 45,665; 53,017; 77,028; 77,029; 81,783; 104,041; 111,266; 114,993; and 118,223.
Following coupling reaction completion, the Nα-Boc moiety may be selectively removed with 45% trifluoroacetic acid with or without 2% anisole (v/v) in methylene chloride. Neutralization of the resultant trifluoroacetate salt may be accomplished with 10% diisopropylethylamine or sodium bicarbonate in methylene chloride. In the case of polymer-assisted peptide synthesis, this stepwise, coupling strategy may be partially or completely automated to provide the desired peptide-polymer intermediates. Anhydrous hydrofluoric acid treatment of the peptide-polymer intermediate may then be used to effect simultaneous protecting group removal and cleavage of the peptide from its polymeric support. A notable exception to this includes Nin-formylindolyl-substituted peptides in which the Nin-formyl-indolyl moiety is stable to TFA or HF but may be removed by NH3 or NaOH. Because FTrp is somewhat unstable to base in synthetic procedures, possibly causing lower yields, it may be desirable in solution phase synthesis to introduce the FTrp-containing moiety late in the synthetic sequence so that it is not exposed to such conditions. The incorporation of Nin-formyl-Trp into compounds of the present invention is easily accomplished because of the commercial availability of Nα-Boc-Nin-formyl-Trp-OH. However, the Nin-formyl moiety may be introduced into indolyl-substituted amino acid derivatives or related compounds by reaction with HCl-formic acid as reported in the literature, see A. Previero et al, Biochim. Biophys. Acta 147, 453 (1967); Y.C.S. Yang et al, Int. J. Peptide Protein Res. 15, 130 (1980).
Generally, methods of alkylation useful in alkylating histidine for use in the present invention are found in Cheung, S.T. et al,
Can. J. Chem., Vol 55, pp. 906-910 (1977). However, it is now found that in Cheung, S.T. et al. methods it is critical that the reaction conditions for the alkylation of histidine be anhydrous. Further, it is now found also that during work-up instead of adding water directly to the reaction mixture, it is preferred that a buffered aqueous solution be added to the reaction mixture, for example, aqueous sodium or potassium hydrogen sulfate.
Variations in the above description for starting materials, reactants, reaction conditions and required protecting groups to obtain other such N-alkylated compounds are known to an ordinarily skilled chemist or are readily available in the literature.
These peptides may also be prepared by the standard solid phase techniques of Merrifield. Appropriate protecting groups, reagents, and solvents for both the solution and solid phase methods can be found in "The Peptides: Analysis, Synthesis, and Biology," Vols. 1-5, eds. E. Gross and T. Meienhofer, Academic Press, NY, 1979-1983.
The compounds of the present invention may be in either free form or in protected form at one or more of the remaining (not previously protected) peptide, carboxyl, amino, hydroxy, or other reactive groups. The protecting groups may be any of those known in the polypeptide art. Examples of nitrogen and oxygen protection groups are set forth in T.W. Greene, Protecting Groups in Organic Synthesis, Wiley, New York, (1981); J.F.W. McOmie, ed. Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry, Plenum Press (1973); and J. Fuhrhop and G. Benzlin, Organic Synthesis, Verlag Chemie (1983). Included among the nitrogen protective groups are t-butoxycarbonyl (Boc), benzyloxycarbonyl, acetyl, allyl, phthalyl, benzyl, benzoyl, trityl and the like.
