Renin inhibitors 2-4 with the D-Lys renin inhibitory peptide (RIP) sequence, but containing Leu psi[CH2O]Ala (2), Leu psi[CH2O]Val (3), and Leu psi[CH2O]Leu (4) at the P1-P1' site, were of a comparable potency to RIP. N-Terminal Boc-protected inhibitors containing Pro psi[CH2O]Phe in positions P4-P3 were potent inhibitors of renin, with Boc-Phe-Pro psi[CH2O]Phe-His-Leu psi[CH(OH)CH2]Val-Ile-(2-aminomethyl) pyridine (17) having an IC50 of 1.6 X 10(-9) M.

Peptides that containdifluorostatine and difluorostatone residues have been shown to be potentinhibitors of the aspartyl protease renin. The readily hydrated fluoro ketone is proposed to mimic the tetrahedral intermediate that forms during the enzyme-catalyzed hydrolysis of a peptidic bond. It is suggested that the sp3-hybridized ketal acts as a transition-state analogue renininhibitor. The fluoro
