The present invention relates to novel anti-hypertensive molecules. The
present invention also provides a process for the preparation of novel
antihypertensive molecules. The present invention particularly relates to
the preparation of novel Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitors (ACEI)
with prolonged activity. ACE inhibitors play an important role in
Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosteron system (RAAS) by inhibiting the activity of
Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) and therefore are used to regulate
blood pressure. ACE inhibitors synthesized by the process of present
invention have a peptide moiety and nonpeptide moiety. ACE inhibitors,
synthesized by this present invention, show enhanced bioavailability and
fewer side effects.
