Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2010 Nov 1;20(21):6286-90. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2010.08.086. Epub 2010 Aug 22.

Abstract

The discovery of a new series of piperidine-based renin inhibitors is described herein. SAR optimization upon the P3 renin sub-pocket is described, leading to the discovery of 9 and 41, two bioavailable renin inhibitors orally active at low doses in a transgenic rat model of hypertension.
