DETAILED DESCRIPTION We claim: 1. A compound represented by the formula ##STR12## and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, wherein R and R. sup. 6 are the same or different and are hydroxy or lower alkoxy; R. sup. 1 is benzyloxylower alkyl or benzylthiolower alkyl; and R. sup. 3 is hydrogen, lower alkyl or aminolower alkyl. 2. A compound of claim 1 wherein R is lower alkoxy. 3. A compound of claim 1 wherein R is ethoxy. 4. A compound of claim 1 wherein R. sup. 6 is hydroxy. 5. A compound of claim 1 wherein R. sup. 3 is lower alkyl. 6. A compound of claim 1 wherein R. sup. 3 is methyl. 7. A compound of claim 1 wherein R. sup. 1 is benzyloxymethyl. 8. A compound of claim 1 wherein R. sup. 1 is benzylthiomethyl. 9. A compound of claim 1 wherein R is lower alkoxy, R. sup. 6 is hydroxy, R. sup. 3 is lower alkyl, and R. sup. 1 is benzyloxymethyl or benzylthiomethyl. 10. A compound of claim 9 wherein R is ethoxy and R. sup. 3 is methyl. 11. A compound of claim 10 which is N-(1(R)-ethoxycarbonyl-2-benzylthioethyl)-(R,S)-alanyl-(S)-proline. 12. A compound of claim 10 which is N-(1(S)-ethoxycarbonyl-2-benzyloxyethyl)-R,S)-alanyl-(S)-proline. 13. An antihypertensive pharmaceutical composition comprising an antihypertensive effective amount of a compound of claim 1, together with a phartmaceutically acceptable carrier. 14. A method for reducing blood pressure in a hypertensive mammal which comprises administering to such a mammal a composition of claim 13.
Description:
EXAMPLE 1 N-(1(R)-Ethoxycarbonyl-2-benzylthioethyl)-(R,S)-alanyl-(S)-proline hydrochloride Mix S-benzyl-L-cysteine ethyl ester hydrochloride (8. 28 g) with NaHCO. sub. 3 solution until basic. Extract with dichloromethane, dry with MgSO. sub. 4, and concentrate to dryness at room temperature. Dissolve the residue in tetrahydrofuran (80 ml) containing pyruvoyl-L-proline (2. 1 g) and 5 Angstrom molecular sieves (4 g). Stir for 2 days and then add, dropwise over 4 hours, a solution of sodium cyanoborohydride in ethanol (20 ml). Stir for 18 hours, filter, and concentrate the filtrate to dryness
