The starting mater;als of the formulae IX, XII and XIII are
formed in the synthesis e;ther as pure diastereoisomers or
as m;xtures of the poss;ble d;astereo;somers wh;ch can be
separated from one another by chromato3raphy or crystal-
l;zat;on.
Compounds of the forrnula IIIe which are prepared
by the above methods are obta;ned as racemic m;xtures, and
can be used as such in the further syntheses described above.
However, they can also be used in the form of pure enantio
mers after the racemates have been separated ;nto the optical
ant;podes by customary methodsD for example by a salt form-
at;on w;th opt;cally act;ve bases or ac;ds.
If compounds of the formula I are obta;ned as race-
mates~ these can l;kew;se be separated ;nto the;r enant;omers
by means of customary method~, such as~ for example~ v;a
salt formation ~;th opt;cally act;ve bases or ac;ds.
The novel compounds of the formula I are in the form
of their inner salts. Since they are amphoteric compounds,
they can form salts with acids as well as bases. These salts
are prepared in a customary manner by reacting the compounds
with one equ;valent of acid or base.
Compounds of the formula I, and the;r salts, have
a prolonged, powerful hypotensive act;on. They are power-
ful inhibitors of the ang;otensin converting enzyme (ACE
inhibitors~ They can be used to control hypertension of
various etiologies. They can also be combined with other
hypotens;~e, vasodilating or diuretically active compounds.
