The compounds I can be present as salts, in particular pharmaceutically acceptable salts. If the compounds I have, for example, at least one basic centre, they can form acid addition salts. These are formed, for example, with strong inorganic acids, such as mineral acids, for example sulfuric acid, a phosphoric acid or a hydrohalic acid, with strong organic carboxylic acids, such as C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkanecarboxylic acids which are unsubstituted or substituted, for example, by halogen, for example acetic acid, such as saturated or unsaturated dicarboxylic acids, for example oxalic, malonic, succinic, maleic, fumaric, phthalic or terephthalic acid, such as hydroxycarboxylic acids, for example ascorbic, glycolic, lactic, malic, tartaric or citric acid, such as amino acids, for example aspartic or glutamic acid, or such as benzoic acid, or with organic sulfonic acids, such as C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkane- or arylsulfonic acids which are unsubstituted or substituted, for example by halogen, for example methane- or p-toluenesulfonic acid. Corresponding acid addition salts can also be formed having, if desired, an additionally present basic centre. The compounds I having at least one acid group (for example COOH or 5-tetrazolyl) can also form salts with bases. Suitable salts with bases are, for example, metal salts, such as alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salts, for example sodium, potassium or magnesium salts, or salts with ammonia or an organic amine, such as morpholine, thiomorpholine, piperidine, pyrrolidine, a mono-, di- or tri-lower alkylamine, for example ethyl-, tert-butyl-, diethyl-, diisopropyl-, triethyl-, tributyl- or dimethylpropylamine, or a mono-, di- or trihydroxy lower alkylamine, for example mono-, di- or triethanolamine.

Extensive pharmacological investigations have shown that the compounds I and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, for example, have pronounced angiotensin II antagonist properties.
As is known, angiotensin II has strong vasoconstrictor properties, additionally stimulates aldosterone secretion and thus causes distinct sodium/water retention. The consequence of angiotensin II activity is manifested, inter alia, in an increase in blood pressure. The importance of angiotensin II antagonists is in suppressing the vasoconstrictor and aldosterone secretion-stimulating effects caused by angiotensin II by competitive inhibition of the binding of angiotensin II to the receptors.
The angiotensin II antagonist properties of the compounds of the formula I and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts can be detected in the angiotensin II binding test. Rat smooth muscle cells from homogenized rat aorta are used here. The solid centrifugate is suspended in 50 mM tris buffer (pH 7.4) using peptidase inhibitors. The samples are incubated for 60 minutes at 25.degree. C. with .sup.25 I-angiotensin II (0.175 nM) and a varying concentration of angiotensin II or test substance. The incubation is then ended by addition of saline buffered with ice-cold phosphate, and the mixture is filtered through Whatman GF/F filters. The filters are counted using a gamma counter. The IC.sub.50 values are determined from the dose-effect curve. IC.sub.50 values from about 10 nM are determined for the compounds of the formula I and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts.
For the determination of angiotensin II-induced vasoconstriction, investigations on the isolated rabbit aorta ring can be used. For this purpose, aorta rings are dissected from each chest and fixed between two parallel clamps at an initial tension of 2 g. The rings are then immersed in 20 ml of a tissue bath at 37.degree. C. and aerated with a mixture of 95% O.sub.2 and 5% CO.sub.2. The isometric reactions are measured: At 20-minute intervals, the rings are alternately stimulated with 10 nM angiotensin II (Hypertensin-CIBA) and 5 nM noradrenaline chloride. The rings are then incubated with selected concentrations of the test substances before treatment with the agonists. The data are analysed using a Buxco digital computer. The concentrations which cause a 50% inhibition of the initial control values are given as IC.sub.50 values. IC.sub.50 values from about 5 nM are determined for the compounds of the formula I and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts.
The fact that the compounds of the formula I and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts can reduce high blood pressure induced by angiotensin II can be verified in the normotensive anaesthetized rat test model. After calibration of the preparations with 0.9% NaCl (1 ml/kg i.v.), noradrenaline (1 .mu.g/kg i.v.) or angiotensin II (0.3 .mu.g/kg i.v.) in each case, increasing doses (3-6) of the test substance are intravenously injected by bolus injection, after which angiotensin II or noradrenaline is administered after each dose at 5 minute intervals. The blood pressure is measured directly in the carotid artery and recorded using an on-line data recording system (Buxco). The specificity of the angiotensin II antagonism is shown by the selective inhibition of the pressure effect produced by angiotensin II, but not that produced by noradrenaline. In this test model, the compounds of the formula I and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts show an inhibiting effect from a dose of about 0.3 mg/kg i.v.
The antihypertensive activity of the compounds of the formula I and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts may also be manifested in the renally hypertensive rat test model. High blood pressure is produced in male rats by constricting a renal artery according to the Goldblatt method. Doses of the test substance are administered to the rats by means of a stomach tube. Control animals receive an equivalent volume of solvent. Blood pressure and heart beat are measured indirectly at intervals in conscious animals by the tail clamp method of Gerold et al. [Helv. Physiol. Acta 24, (1966), 58] before administration of the test substances or of the solvent and during the course of the experiments. It was possible to detect the pronounced antihypertensive effect from a dose of about 30 mg/kg p.o.
The compounds of the formula I and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts can therefore be used, for example, as pharmaceutical active ingredients in antihypertensives which are employed, for example, for the treatment of high blood pressure and cardiac insufficiency.
The invention thus relates to the use of the compounds according to the invention and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts for the production of appropriate medicaments and to the therapeutic treatment of high blood pressure and cardiac insufficiency. The industrial production of the active substances is also included in the production of the pharmaceuticals.

The invention relates in particular to the novel compounds shown in the examples and to the modes of preparation described therein.
The invention relates to processes for the preparation of the compounds according to the invention. The preparation of compounds of the formula Ia and their salts is carried out in a manner known per se and comprises, for example,
a) in a compound of the formula ##STR5## or a salt thereof in which Z.sub.1 is a radical which can be convened into R.sub.3, convening Z.sub.1 into R.sub.3, or
b) reacting a compound of the formula R.sub.1 -X.sub.1 OH (IIIa), a reactive derivative thereof or a salt thereof with a compound of the formula ##STR6## or a salt thereof and, if desired, converting a compound I obtainable according to the process or in another manner, in free form or in salt form, into another compound I, separating a mixture of isomers obtainable according to the process and isolating the desired isomer and/or converting a free compound I obtainable according to the process into a salt or convening a salt of a compound I obtainable according to the process into the free compound I or into another salt.
Salts of starting materials which have at least one basic centre, for example of the formula IIIb, are appropriate acid addition salts, while salts of starting materials which have an acidic group, for example of the formula (IIIa), are present as salts with bases, in each case as mentioned above in connection with corresponding salts of the formula I.
Z.sub.1 radicals which can be convened into the variable R.sub.3 are, for example, cyano, mercapto, halogen, the group --N.sub.2.sup.+ A.sup.-, in which A.sup.- is an anion derived from an acid, amino and various functionally modified forms of COOH, SO.sub.3 H, PO.sub.3 H.sub.2 or PO.sub.2 H.sub.2 as well as N-protected 5-tetrazolyl.
Reactive derivatives of compounds of the formula IIIa are, for example, activated esters or reactive anhydrides derived therefrom, and also reactive cyclic amides.
The reactions described above and below in the variants are carried out in a manner known per se, for example in the absence or, customarily, in the presence of a suitable solvent or diluent or a mixture thereof, the reaction, as required, being carried out with cooling, at room temperature or with warming, for example in a temperature range from about -80.degree. C. up to the boiling point of the reaction medium, preferably from about -10.degree. to about +200.degree. C., and, if necessary, in a closed vessel, under pressure, in an inert gas atmosphere and/or under anhydrous conditions.
Process variant a:
Z.sub.1 radicals which can be converted into 5-tetrazolyl R.sub.3 are, for example, cyano or protected 5-tetrazolyl.
To prepare compounds of the formula I in which R.sub.3 is 5-tetrazolyl, a starting material of the formula II, for example, is used in which Z.sub.1 is cyano, and this is reacted with an azide, such as HN.sub.3 or in particular a salt, such as an alkali metal salt, thereof or with an organotin azide, such as tri(lower)alkyl- or triaryltin azide. Preferred azides are, for example, sodium azide and potassium azide and also tri-C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl azide, for example triethyl- or tributyltin azide, and triphenyltin azide. Preferably, the tetrazol-5-yl formation is carried out with those compounds of the formula II in which R.sub.2 is different from carboxyl.
Suitable protecting groups for protected 5-tetrazolyl are the protecting groups customarily used in tetrazole chemistry, in particular triphenylmethyl, benzyl which is unsubstituted or substituted, for example by nitro, such as 4-nitrobenzyl, lower alkoxymethyl, such as methoxy- and ethoxymethyl, lower alkylthiomethyl, such as methylthiomethyl, silyl, such as tri-lower alkylsilyl, for example dimethyl-tert-butyl- and triisopropylsilyl, and 2-cyanoethyl, also lower alkoxy-lower alkoxymethyl, such as 2-methoxyethoxymethyl, benzyloxymethyl and phenacyl.
The protecting groups are removed using known methods, for example as described in J. Green, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, Wiley-Interscience (1980). Thus, for example, the triphenylmethyl group is customarily removed by hydrolysis, in particular in the presence of an acid, or hydrogenolysis in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst, 4-nitrobenzyl is removed, for example, by hydrogenolysis in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst, methoxy- or ethoxymethyl is removed, for example, by treating with a tri-lower alkyltin bromide, such as triethyl- or tributyltin bromide, methylthiomethyl is removed, for example, by treating with trifluoroacetic acid, silyl radicals are removed, for example, by treating with fluorides, such as tetra-lower alkylammonium fluorides, for example tetrabutylammonium fluoride, or alkali metal fluorides, for example sodium fluoride, or 2-cyanoethyl is removed, for example, by hydrolysis, for example with sodium hydroxide solution, 2-methoxyethoxymethyl is removed, for example, by hydrolysis, for example with hydrochloric acid, and benzyloxymethyl and phenacyl are removed, for example, by hydrogenolysis in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst.
A radical which can be converted into SO.sub.3 H.dbd.R.sub.3 is, for example, the mercapto group. Starting compounds of the formula II containing a group of this type are, for example, oxidised by oxidation processes known per se to give those compounds of the formula I in which R.sub.3 is SO.sub.3 H. Suitable oxidising agents are, for example, inorganic peracids, such as peracids of mineral acids, for example periodic acid or persulfuric acid, organic peracids, such as appropriate percarboxylic or persulfonic acids, for example performic, peracetic, trifluoroperacetic or perbenzoic acid or p-toluenepersulfonic acid, or mixtures of hydrogen peroxide and acids, for example a mixture of hydrogen peroxide with acetic acid.
The oxidation is commonly carried out in the presence of suitable catalysts, suitable acids, such as substituted or unsubstituted carboxylic acids, for example acetic acid or trifluoroacetic acid, or transition metal oxides, such as oxides of elements of sub-group VII, for example vanadium oxide, molybdenum oxide or tungsten oxide, being mentioned as catalysts. The oxidation is carried out under mild conditions, for example at temperatures from about -50.degree. to about +100.degree. C.
A group which can be converted into PO.sub.3 H.sub.2 .dbd.R.sub.3 is to be understood as meaning, for example, a group N.sub.2.sup.+ A.sup.-, in which A.sup.- is an anion of an acid, such as a mineral acid. Diazonium compounds of this type are, for example, reacted in a manner known per se with a P(III) halide, such as PCl.sub.3 or PBr.sub.3, and worked up by hydrolysis, those compounds of the formula I being obtainable in which R.sub.3 is PO.sub.3 H.sub.2.
A suitable Z.sub.1 radical which can be converted into haloalkylsulfamoyl R.sub.3 is, for example, primary amino.
In order to prepare compounds of the formula I in which R.sub.3 is haloalkylsulfamoyl, corresponding anilines, for example, are reacted with a customarily reactive esterified haloalkylsulfonic acid, the reaction being carried out, if desired, in the presence of a base. A suitable preferred reactive esterified halosulfonic acid is the corresponding halide, such as a chloride or bromide.
A radical Z.sub.1 which can be convened into COOH.dbd.R.sub.3 is, for example, a functionally modified carboxyl, such as cyano, esterified or amidated carboxyl, hydroxymethyl or formyl.
Esterified carboxyl is, for example, carboxyl esterified with a substituted or unsubstituted aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or aromatic alcohol. An aliphatic alcohol is, for example, a lower alkanol, such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol, n-butanol, sec- or tert-butanol, while a suitable cycloaliphatic alcohol is, for example, a 3- to 8-membered cycloalkanol, such as cyclopentanol, -hexanol or -heptanol. An aromatic alcohol is, for example, a phenol or heterocyclic alcohol, which may in each case be substituted or unsubstituted, in particular hydroxypyridine, for example 2-, 3- or 4-hydroxypyridine. Carboxyl can also be esterified with a silylated alcohol and is in particular tri-(C.sub.1 -C.sub.4)alkylsilyl-(C.sub.1 -C.sub.4)alkoxy carbonyl, in particular trimethylsilylethoxycarbonyl.
Amidated carboxyl is, for example, carbamoyl, carbamoyl which is monosubstituted by hydroxyl, amino or substituted or unsubstituted phenyl, carbamoyl which is mono- or disubstituted by lower alkyl or carbamoyl which is disubstituted by 4- to 7-membered alkylene or 3-aza-, 3-lower alkylaza-, 3-oxo- or 3-thiaalkylene. Examples which may be mentioned are carbamoyl, N-mono- or N,N-di-lower alkylcarbamoyl, such as N-methyl-, N-ethyl-, N,N-dimethyl-, N,N-diethyl- or N,N-dipropylcarbamoyl, pyrrolidino- or piperidinocarbonyl, morpholino-, piperazino- or 4-methylpiperazino- and also thiomorpholinocarbonyl, anilinocarbonyl or anilinocarbonyl substituted by lower alkyl, lower alkoxy and/or halogen.
Preferred functionally modified carboxyl is, for example, lower alkoxycarbonyl, such as methoxy- or ethoxycarbonyl, tri-(C.sub.1 -C.sub.4)alkylsilyl-(C.sub.1 -C.sub.4)alkoxycarbonyl, in particular trimethylsilylethoxycarbonyl, or cyano. Compounds of the formula I in which R.sub.3 is carboxyl can be prepared, for example, starting from compounds of the formula II in which Z.sub.1 is functionally modified carboxyl, in a manner known per se, for example by hydrolysis, in particular in the presence of a base, in the case of appropriate tri-(C--C)alkylsilyl-(C--C)alkoxycarbonyl derivatives, for example, by treating with an ammonium fluoride, such as tetra-lower alkyl ammonium fluoride, for example tetra-n-butylammonium fluoride, or in the case of benzyloxycarbonyl derivatives by hydrogenolysis in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst, or starting from those compounds of the formula II in which Z.sub.1 is hydroxymethyl or formyl, by oxidation using customary oxidising agents.
The oxidation is carried out, for example, in an inert solvent, such as a lower alkanecarboxylic acid, for example acetic acid, a ketone, for example acetone, an ether, for example tetrahydrofuran, a heterocyclic aromatic, for example pyridine, or water or a mixture thereof, if necessary with cooling or warming, for example from about 0.degree. to about 150.degree. C. Suitable oxidising agents are, for example, oxidising transition metal compounds, in particular those with elements of sub-groups I, VI or VIII. Examples which may be mentioned are: silver compounds, such as silver nitrate, silver oxide or silver picolinate, chromium compounds, such as chromium trioxide or potassium dichromate, manganese compounds, such as potassium permanganate, tetrabutylammonium permanganate or benzyl(triethyl)ammonium permanganate. Other oxidising agents are, for example, suitable compounds with elements of main group IV, such as lead dioxide, or halogen-oxygen compounds, such as sodium iodate or potassium periodate.
Thus, for example, hydroxymethyl and formyl are oxidised to carboxyl R.sub.3.
This variant is preferably suitable for the preparation of those compounds of the formula I in which the variables have meanings which are different from unsaturated radicals.
Suitable bases are, for example, alkali metal hydroxides, hydrides, amides, alkanolates, carbonates, triphenylmethylides, di-lower alkylamides, aminoalkylamides or lower alkylsilylamides, naphthaleneamines, lower alkylamines, basic heterocycles, ammonium hydroxides, and carbocyclic amines. Examples which may be mentioned are sodium hydroxide, sodium hydride, sodium amide, sodium methoxide, sodium ethoxide, potassium tert-butoxide, potassium carbonate, lithium triphenylmethylide, lithium diisopropylamide, potassium 3-(aminopropyl)amide, potassium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide, dimethylaminonaphthalene, di- or triethylamine, or ethyldiisopropylamine, N-methylpiperidine, pyridine, benzyltrimethylammonium hydroxide, 1,5-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]non-5-ene (DBN) and 1,8-diaza-bicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU).
The starting material of the formula II is accessible, for example, by reacting a compound of the formula R.sub.2 --X.sub.2 --NH.sub.2 (IIa) with a compound of the formula ##STR7## in which Z.sub.2 is --X.sub.3 --Z.sub.4 and Z.sub.4 is reactive esterified hydroxyl, for example in the presence of a base, and reacting the compound thus obtained of the formula ##STR8## in the next reaction step with a compound of the formula IIIa, for example analogously to variant b).
Reactive esterified hydroxyl Z.sub.4 is in particular hydroxyl esterified with a strong inorganic acid or organic sulfonic acid, for example halogen, such as chlorine, bromine or iodine, sulfonyloxy, such as hydroxysulfonyloxy, halosulfonyloxy, for example fluorosulfonyloxy, C.sub.1 -C.sub.7 alkanesulfonyloxy which is unsubstituted or substituted, for example by halogen, for example methane- or trifluoromethanesulfonyloxy, C.sub.5 -C.sub.7 cycloalkanesulfonyloxy, for example cyclohexanesulfonyloxy, or benzenesulfonyloxy which is unsubstituted or substituted, for example by C.sub.1 -C.sub.7 alkyl or halogen, for example p-bromobenzene- or p-toluenesulfonyloxy.
Compounds of the formula IIb, for their part, are known, for example, from EP 253,310 or can be prepared in a manner known per se. Compounds of the formula (IIa) are essentially known or are accessible analogously to preparation processes known per se.
Process variant b): Activated esters of compounds of the formula IIIa are in particular esters which are unsaturated at the linking carbon atom of the esterifying radical, for example of the vinyl ester type, such as vinyl esters (obtainable, for example, by transesterification of an appropriate ester with vinyl acetate; activated vinyl ester method), carbamoylvinyl esters (obtainable, for example, by treating the appropriate acid with an isoxazolium reagent; 1,2-oxazolium or Woodward method) or 1-lower alkoxyvinyl esters (obtainable, for example, by treating the appropriate acid with a lower alkoxyacetylene; ethoxyacetylene method), or esters of the amidino type, such as N,N'-disubstituted amidino esters (obtainable, for example, by treating the appropriate acid with a suitable N,N'-disubstituted carbodiimide, for example N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide; carbodiimide method) or N,N-disubstituted amidino esters (obtainable, for example, by treating the appropriate acid with an N,N-disubstituted cyanamide; cyanamide method), suitable aryl esters, in particular phenyl esters substituted by electron-attracting substituents (obtainable, for example, by treating the appropriate acid with a suitably substituted phenol, for example 4-nitrophenol, 4-methylsulfonylphenol, 2,4,5-trichlorophenol, 2,3,4,5,6-pentachlorophenol or 4-phenyldiazophenol, in the presence of a condensing agent, such as N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide; activated aryl ester method), cyanomethyl esters (obtainable, for example, by treating the appropriate acid with chloroacetonitrile in the presence of a base; cyanomethyl ester method), thio esters, in particular phenylthio esters which are unsubstituted or substituted, for example by nitro, (obtainable, for example, by treating the appropriate acid with thiophenols which are unsubstituted or substituted, for example by nitro, inter alia with the aid of the anhydride or carbodiimide method; activated thiol ester method) or in particular amino or amido esters (obtainable, for example, by treating the appropriate acid with an N-hydroxyamino or N-hydroxyamido compound and their activated derivatives, for example N-hydroxysuccinimide, N-hydroxypiperidine, N-hydroxyphthalimide, N-hydroxy-5-norbornene- or norbonane-2,3-dicarboximide, 1-hydroxybenzotriazole or benzotriazol-1-yloxyphosphonium salts or benzotriazol-1-yluronium salts, or 3-hydroxy-3,4-dihydro-1,2,3-benzotriazin-4-one, for example by the anhydride or carbodiimide method; activated N-hydroxy ester method).
Anhydrides of acids can be symmetrical or preferably mixed anhydrides of these acids, for example anhydrides with inorganic acids, such as acid halides, in particular acid chlorides, (obtainable, for example, by treating the appropriate acid with thionyl chloride, phosphorus pentachloride or oxalyl chloride; acid chloride method), azides (obtainable, for example, from an appropriate acid ester via the corresponding hydrazide and its treatment with nitrous acid; azide method), anhydrides with carbonic acid half-esters, for example lower alkyl carbonate half-esters (obtainable, for example, by treating the appropriate acid with lower alkyl chloroformates or with a 1-lower alkoxycarbonyl-2-lower alkoxy-1,2-dihydroquinoline, for example
1-ethoxycarbonyl-2-ethoxy-1,2-dihydroquinoline; mixed O-alkylcarbonic anhydride method), anhydrides with dihalogenated, in particular dichlorinated, phosphoric acid (obtainable, for example, by treating the appropriate acid with phosphorus oxychloride; phosphorus oxychloride method), anhydrides with other phosphoric acid derivatives (for example those which can be obtained with phenyl N-phenylphosphoramidochloridate) or with phosphorus acid derivatives, or anhydrides with organic acids, such as mixed anhydrides with organic carboxylic acids (obtainable, for example, by treating the appropriate acid with a substituted or unsubstituted lower alkane- or phenyl-lower alkane carbonyl halide, for example phenylacetyl, pivaloyl or trifluoroacetyl chloride; mixed carbonic anhyride method) or with organic sulfonic acids (obtainable, for example, by treating a salt, such as an alkali metal salt, of the appropriate acid with a suitable organic sulfonyl halide, such as lower alkane- or arylsufonyl chloride, for example methane- or p-toluenesulfonyl chloride; mixed sulfonic anhydride method), and also symmetrical anhydrides (obtainable, for example, by condensation of the appropriate acid in the presence of a carbodiimide or of 1-diethylaminopropyne; symmetrical anhydride method).
Suitable cyclic amides are in particular amides having five-membered diazacyclic compounds of aromatic character, such as amides with imidazoles, for example imidazole (obtainable, for example, by treating the appropriate acid with N,N'-carbonyldiimidazole; imidazole method), or pyrazoles, for example 3,5-dimethylpyrazole (obtainable, for example, via the acid hydrazide by treating with acetylacetone; pyrazolide method).
The condensation reaction for the preparation of the amide compound can be carried out in a manner known per se, for example as described in standard texts, such as Houben-Weyl, "Methoden der organischen Chemie" (Methods of Organic Chemistry), 4th edition, Volume 15/II, Georg Thieme Verlag, Stuttgart 1974, "The Peptides" (editors E. Gross and J. Meienhofer), Volumes 1 and 2, Academic Press, London and New York, 1979/1980, or M. Bodanszky, "Principles of Peptide Synthesis", Springer-Verlag, Berlin 1984.
The condensation reaction can be carried out in the presence of one of the customary condensing agents. Customary condensing agents are, for example, carbodiimides, for example diethyl-, dipropyl- or N-ethyl-N'-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide or in particular dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, and also suitable carbonyl compounds, for example carbonyldiimidazole, 1,2-oxazolium compounds, for example 2-ethyl-5-phenyl-1,2-oxazolium-3'-sulfonate and 2-tert-butyl-5-methylisoxazolium perchlorate, or a suitable acylamino compound, for example 2-ethoxy-1-ethoxycarbonyl-1,2-dihydroquinoline, and also activated phosphoric acid derivatives, for example diphenylphosphoryl azide, diethylphosphoryl cyanide, phenyl N-phenylphosphoramidochloridates, bis(2-oxo-3-oxazolidinyl)phosphinoyl chloride or 1-benzotriazolyloxy-tris(dimethylamino)phosphonium hexafluorophosphate. If desired, an organic base is added, for example a tri-lower alkylamine having bulky radicals, for example ethyldiisopropylamine, or a heterocylic base, for example pyridine, 4-dimethylaminopyridine or preferably N-methylmorpholine.
The condensation of acid anhydrides with amines can be carried out, for example, in the presence of inorganic carbonates, for example alkali metal carbonates or hydrogencarbonates, such as sodium or potassium carbonate or hydrogencarbonate (customarily together with a sulfate).
The condensation reaction is preferably carried out in an inert polar aprotic, preferably anhydrous, solvent or solvent mixture, for example in a carboxamide, for example formamide or dimethylformamide, a halogenated hydrocarbon, for example methylene chloride, carbon tetrachloride or chlorobenzene, a ketone, for example acetone, cyclic ethers, for example tetrahydrofuran, an ester, for example ethyl acetate, or a nitrile, for example acetonitrile, or in mixtures thereof, if desired at reduced or elevated temperature, for example in a temperature range from about -40.degree. C. to about +100.degree. C., preferably from about -10.degree. C. to about +50.degree. C., and if desired under an inert gas atmosphere, for example a nitrogen atmosphere.
Reactive acid derivatives can also be formed in situ.
The starting material of the formula IIIb can be prepared, for example, by reacting a compound of the formula IIa with a compound of the formula ##STR9## in which Z.sub.3 is --X.sub.3 --Z.sub.4 and Z.sub.4 is reactive esterified hydroxyl, in particular in the presence of one of the abovementioned bases. To prepare compounds of the formula IIIb in which X.sub.3 is --CH.sub.2 --, compounds of the formula IIa, for example, are used as starting materials and these are reacted with compounds of the formula IIIc in which Z.sub.3 is formyl. The Schiff's bases obtainable in this way are then reduced with the aid of a reducing agent, such as sodium cyanoborohydride.
Reactive esterified hydroxyl Z.sub.4 is in particular hydroxyl esterified with a strong inorganic acid or organic sulfonic acid, for example halogen, such as chlorine, bromine or iodine, sulfonyloxy, such as hydroxysulfonyloxy, halosulfonyloxy, for example fluorosulfonyloxy, C.sub.1 -C.sub.7 alkanesulfonyloxy which is unsubstituted or substituted, for example by halogen, for example methane- or trifluoromethanesulfonyloxy, C.sub.5 -C.sub.7 cycloalkanesulfonyloxy, for example cyclohexanesulfonyloxy, or benzenesulfonyloxy which is unsubstituted or substituted, for example by C.sub.1 -C.sub.7 alkyl or halogen, for example p-bromobenzene- or p-toluenesulfonyloxy.
A compound according to the invention which is obtainable by the process can be convened into another compound according to the invention in a manner known per se.
A compound according to the invention containing hydroxyl can be etherified by methods known per se. The etherification can be carried out, for example, using an alcohol, such as a substituted or unsubstituted lower alkanol, or a reactive ester thereof. Suitable reactive esters of the desired alcohols are, for example, those with strong inorganic or organic acids, such as corresponding halides, sulfates, lower alkanesulfonates or substituted or unsubstituted benzenesulfonates, for example chlorides, bromides, iodides, methane-, benzene- or p-toluenesulfonates. The etherification can be carried out, for example, in the presence of a base, an alkali metal hydride, hydroxide or carbonate, or of an amine. Conversely, corresponding ethers, such as lower alkoxy compounds, can be cleaved, for example, by means of strong acids, such as mineral acids, for example the hydrohalic acids hydrobromic or hydriodic acid, which may advantageously be present in the form of pyridinium halides, or by means of Lewis acids, for example halides of elements of main group III or the corresponding sub-groups. These reactions can be carried out, if necessary, with cooling or warming, for example in a temperature range from about -20.degree. to about 100.degree. C., in the presence or absence of a solvent or diluent, under inert gas and/or under pressure and, if appropriate, in a closed vessel.
Compounds according to the invention containing hydroxymethyl groups can be prepared, for example, starting from compounds containing corresponding carboxyl or esterified carboxyl, corresponding compounds being reduced in a manner known per se, for example by reduction with a hydride which, if desired, may be complex, such as a hydride formed from an element of the 1st and 3rd main groups of the periodic table of the elements, for example borohydride or aluminohydride, for example lithium borohydride, lithium aluminium hydride, diisobutylaluminium hydride (an additional reduction step using alkali metal cyanoborohydride, such as sodium cyanoborohydride, may be necessary), and also diborane.
If an aromatic structural component is substituted by (lower) alkylthio (in S(O).sub.m --R m is 0), this can be oxidised in a customary manner to corresponding (lower) alkanesulfinyl or -sulfonyl. Suitable oxidising agents for the oxidation to the sulfoxide step are, for example, inorganic peracids, such as peracids of mineral acids, for example periodic acid or persulfuric acid, organic peracids, such as appropriate percarboxylic or persulfonic acids, for example performic, peracetic, trifluoroperacetic or perbenzoic acid or p-toluenepersulfonic acid, or mixtures of hydrogen peroxide and acids, for example a mixture of hydrogen peroxide with acetic acid.
The oxidation is commonly carried out in the presence of suitable catalysts, catalysts which can be mentioned being suitable acids, such as substituted or unsubstituted carboxylic acids, for example acetic acid or trifluoroacetic acid, or transition metal oxides, such as oxides of elements of sub-group VII, for example vanadium oxide, molybdenum oxide or tungsten oxide. The oxidation is carried out under mild conditions, for example at temperatures from about -50.degree. to about +100.degree. C.
The oxidation to the sulfone step may also be carried out appropriately at low temperatures using dinitrogen tetroxide as the catalyst in the presence of oxygen, just like the direct oxidation of (lower) alkylthio to (lower) alkanesulfonyl. However, in this case the oxidising agent is customarily employed in an excess.
If one of the variables contains amino, corresponding compounds of the formula I, their tautomers or salts can be N-alkylated in a manner known per se; likewise, carbamoyl or radicals containing carbamoyl can be N-alkylated. The (aryl)alkylation is carried out, for example, using a reactive ester of an (aryl)C.sub.1 -C.sub.7 alkyl halide, for example a bromide or iodide, (aryl)C.sub.1 -C.sub.7 alkylsulfonate, for example methanesulfonate or p-toluenesulfonate, or a di-C.sub.1 -C.sub.7 alkyl sulfate, for example dimethyl sulfate, preferably under basic conditions, such as in the presence of sodium hydroxide solution or potassium hydroxide solution, and advantageously in the presence of a phase transfer catalyst, such as tetrabutylammonium bromide or benzyltrimethylammonium chloride, where, however, stronger basic condensing agents, such as alkali metal amides, hydrides or alkoxides, for example sodium amide, sodium hydride or sodium ethoxide, may be necessary. Amino can also be acylated in a manner known per se, for example analogously to variant b).
In compounds of the formula I which contain an esterified or amidated carboxyl group as a substituent, a group of this type can be converted into a free carboxyl group, for example by means of hydrolysis, for example in the presence of a basic agent, or of an acidic agent, such as a mineral acid. Tert-butyloxycarbonyl, for example, can furthermore be converted into carboxyl, for example in a manner known per se, such as treating with trihaloacetic acid, such as trifluoroacetic acid, and benzyloxycarbonyl can be convened into carboxyl, for example by catalytic hydrogenation in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst, for example in the manner described below.
Furthermore, in compounds of the formula I which contain a carboxyl group as a substituent, in particular if R.sub.3 is different from carboxyl, this can be convened into an esterified carboxyl group, for example, by treating with an alcohol, such as a lower alkanol, in the presence of a suitable esterifying agent, such as an acid reagent, for example an inorganic or organic acid or a Lewis acid, for example zinc chloride, or a condensing agent which binds water, for example a carbodiimide, such as N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, or by treating with a diazo reagent, such as with a diazo-lower alkane, for example diazomethane. This can also be obtained if compounds of the formula I in which the carboxyl group is present in free form or in salt form, such as ammonium salt or metal salt form, for example alkali metal salt form, such as sodium salt or potassium salt form, are treated with a reactive ester of a (C.sub.1 -C.sub.7)alkyl halide, for example methyl or ethyl bromide or iodide, or an organic sulfonic acid ester, such as an appropriate (C.sub.1 -C.sub.7)alkyl ester, for example methyl or ethyl methanesulfonate or p-toluenesulfonate.
Compounds of the formula I which contain an esterified carboxyl group as a substituent can be transesterified into other ester compounds of the formula I by transesterification, for example by treating with an alcohol, customarily a higher appropriate alcohol than that of the esterified carboxyl group in the starting material, in the presence of a suitable transesterifying agent, such as a basic agent, for example an alkali metal (C.sub.1 -C.sub.7)alkanoate, (C.sub.1 -C.sub.7)alkanolate or alkali metal cyanide, such as sodium acetate, sodium methoxide, sodium ethoxide, sodium tert-butoxide or sodium cyanide, or a suitable acid agent, if appropriate with removal of the resulting alcohol, for example by distillation. Appropriate, so-called activated esters of the formula I which contain an activated esterified carboxyl group as a substituent may also be used as starting materials (see below), and these may be converted into another ester by treating with a (C.sub.1 -C.sub.7)alkanol.
In compounds of the formula I which contain the carboxyl group as a substituent, this can also first be converted into a reactive derivative, such as an anhydride, including a mixed anhydride, such as an acid halide, for example an acid chloride (for example by treating with a thionyl halide, for example thionyl chloride), or an anhydride using a formic acid ester, for example a (C.sub.1 -C.sub.7)alkyl ester (for example by treating a salt, such as an ammonium or alkali metal salt, with a haloformic acid ester, such as a chloroformic acid ester, such as a (C.sub.1 -C.sub.7)alkyl ester), or into an activated ester, such as a cyanomethyl ester, a nitrophenyl ester, for example a 4-nitrophenyl ester, or a polyhalophenyl ester, for example a pentachlorophenyl ester (for example by treating with an appropriate hydroxyl compound in the presence of a suitable condensing agent, such as N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide), and then a reactive derivative of this type can be reacted with an amine and in this way amide compounds of the formula I which contain an amidated carboxyl group as a substituent can be obtained. In this case, these can be obtained directly or via intermediate compounds; thus, for example, an activated ester, such as a 4-nitrophenyl ester, of a compound of the formula I containing a carboxyl group can first be reacted with a 1-unsubstituted imidazole and the 1-imidazolylcarbonyl compound obtained in this way brought to reaction with an amine. However, other non-activated esters, such as (C.sub.1 -C.sub.7)alkyl esters of compounds of the formula I, which contain, for example, (C.sub.2 -C.sub.8)alkoxycarbonyl as a substituent, can also be brought to reaction with amines.
If an aromatic ring contains a hydrogen atom as a substituent, the latter can be replaced by a halogen atom with the aid of a halogenating agent in a customary manner, for example brominated with bromine, hypobromic acid, acyl hypobromites or other organic bromine compounds, for example N-bromosuccinimide, N-bromoacetamide, N-bromophthalimide, pyridinium perbromide, dioxane dibromide, 1,3-dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin or 2,4,4,6-tetrabromo-2,5-cyclohexanedien-1-one, or chlorinated with elemental chlorine, for example in a halogenated hydrocarbon, such as chloroform, and with cooling, for example from down to about -10.degree. to about +100.degree. C.
If an aromatic ring in the compounds according to the invention contains an amino group, this can be diazotized in a customary manner, for example by treating with a nitrite, for example sodium nitrite, in the presence of a suitable protonic acid, for example a mineral acid, the reaction temperature advantageously being kept below about 5.degree. C. The diazonium group present in the salt form and obtainable in this way can be substituted by analogous processes, for example as follows: by the hydroxyl group analogously to the boiling-out of phenol in the presence of water; by an alkoxy group by treating with an appropriate alcohol, energy having to be added; by the fluorine atom analogously to the Schiemann reaction in the thermolysis of corresponding diazonium tetrafluoroborates; by the halogen atoms chlorine, bromine or iodine and also the cyano group analogously to the Sandmeyer reaction in the reaction with corresponding Cu(I) salts, initially with cooling, for example to below about 5.degree. C., and then heating, for example to about 60.degree. to about 150.degree. C.
If the compounds of the formula I contain unsaturated radicals, such as (lower) alkenyl or (lower) alkynyl groups, these can be converted into saturated radicals in a manner known per se. Thus, for example, multiple bonds are hydrogenated by catalytic hydrogenation in the presence of hydrogenation catalysts, suitable catalysts for this purpose being, for example, nickel, such as Raney nickel, and noble metals or their derivatives, for example oxides, such as palladium or platinum oxide, which may be applied, if desired, to support materials, for example to carbon or calcium carbonate. The hydrogenation may preferably be carried out at pressures between 1 and about 100 at and at room temperature between about -80.degree. to about 200.degree. C., in particular between room temperature and about 100.degree. C. The reaction is advantageously carried out in a solvent, such as water, a lower alkanol, for example ethanol, isopropanol or n-butanol, an ether, for example dioxane, or a lower alkanecarboxylic acid, for example acetic acid.
Furthermore, in compounds of the formula I in which, for example, one of the radicals R.sub.1 and/or X.sub.2 contains halogen, such as chlorine, halogen can be replaced by reaction with a substituted or unsubstituted amine, an alcohol or a mercaptan.
The invention relates in particular to the processes described in the examples.
Salts of compounds of the formula I can be prepared in a manner known per se. Thus, for example, acid addition salts of compounds of the formula I are obtained by treating with an acid or a suitable ion exchange reagent. Salts can be converted into the free compounds in a customary manner, and acid addition salts can be converted, for example, by treating with a suitable basic agent.
Depending on the procedure and reaction conditions, the compounds according to the invention having salt-forming, in particular basic properties, can be obtained in free form or preferably in the form of salts.
In view of the close relationship between the novel compound in the free form and in the form of its salts, in the preceding text and below the free compound or its salts may correspondingly and advantageously also be understood as meaning the corresponding salts or the free compound.
The novel compounds including their salts of salt-forming compounds can also be obtained in the form of their hydrates or can include other solvents used for crystallization.
Depending on the choice of the starting materials and procedures, the novel compounds can be present in the form of one of the possible isomers or as mixtures thereof, for example as pure optical isomers, such as antipodes, or as isomer mixtures, such as racemates, diastereoisomer mixtures or racemate mixtures, depending on the number of asymmetric carbon atoms. For example, compounds of the formula Ia in which X.sub.2 is the group of the formula Ib in which q is 1 and in which X.sub.4 and X.sub.5 have different meanings, have an asymmetric C atom. In corresponding compounds of the formula I in which R.sub.2, for example, is carboxyl which, if desired, is esterified or amidated or hydroxyl which, if desired, is etherified, the asymmetric C atom of the partial structure of the formula -X.sub.2 -R.sub.2 concerned preferably has the L-configuration.
Racemates and diastereomer mixtures obtained can be separated into the pure isomers or racemates in a known manner on the basis of the physicochemical differences of the components, for example by fractional crystallization. Racemates obtained may furthermore be resolved into the optical antipodes by known methods, for example by recrystallization from an optically active solvent, chromatography on chiral adsorbents, with the aid of suitable microorganisms, by cleavage with specific immobilized enzymes, via the formation of inclusion compounds, for example using chiral crown ethers, only one enantiomer being complexed, or by conversion into diastereomeric salts, for example by reaction of a basic final substance racemate with an optically active acid, such as a carboxylic acid, for example tartaric or malic acid, or sulfonic acid, for example camphorsulfonic acid, and separation of the diastereomer mixture obtained in this manner, for example on the basis of its differing solubilities, into the diastereomers from which the desired enantiomer can be liberated by the action of suitable agents. The more active enantiomer is advantageously isolated.
The invention also relates to those embodiments of the process, according to which a compound obtainable as an intermediate in any step of the process is used as a starting material and the missing steps are carried out or a starting material in the form of a derivative or salt and/or its racemates or antipodes is used or, in particular, formed under the reaction conditions.
In the process of the present invention, those starting materials are preferably used which lead to the compounds described as particularly useful at the beginning. The invention likewise relates to novel starting materials which have been specifically developed for the preparation of the compounds according to the invention, to their use and to processes for their preparation, the variables R, R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, X.sub.1, X.sub.2, X.sub.3, X.sub.4, X.sub.5, m, p, q and r having the meanings indicated for the preferred compound groups of the formula I in each case. In particular, compounds of the formula IIa, their tautomers and salts in which Z.sub.1 is cyano are preferred as starting materials.
The invention likewise relates to the use of the compounds of the formula I or of pharmaceutically acceptable salts of compounds of this type with salt-forming properties, in particular as pharmacological, primarily angiotensin II antagonist, active substances. In this connection, they can be used, preferably in the form of pharmaceutically acceptable preparations, in a method for the prophylactic and/or therapeutic treatment of the animal or human body, in particular as angiotensin II antagonists.
The invention likewise relates to pharmaceutical preparations which contain the compounds according to the invention or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof as active ingredients, and to processes for their preparation.
The pharmaceutical preparations according to the invention which contain the compound according to the invention or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are those for enteral, such as oral, furthermore rectal, and parenteral administration to (a) warm-blooded animal(s), the pharmacological active ingredient being present on its own or together with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The daily dose of the active ingredient depends on the age and the individual condition and also on the manner of administration.
The novel pharmaceutical preparations contain, for example, from about 10% to about 80%, preferably from about 20% to about 60%, of the active ingredient. Pharmaceutical preparations according to the invention for enteral or parenteral administration are, for example, those in unit dose forms, such as sugar-coated tablets, tablets, capsules or suppositories, and furthermore ampoules. These are prepared in a manner known per se, for example by means of conventional mixing, granulating, sugar-coating, dissolving or lyophilizing processes. Thus, pharmaceutical preparations for oral use can be obtained by combining the active ingredient with solid carriers, if desired granulating a mixture obtained, and processing the mixture or granules, if desired or necessary, after addition of suitable excipients to give tablets or sugar-coated tablet cores.
Suitable carriers are, in particular, fillers, such as sugars, for example lactose, sucrose, mannitol or sorbitol, cellulose preparations and/or calcium phosphates, for example tricalcium phosphate or calcium hydrogen phosphate, furthermore binders, such as starch paste, using, for example, corn, wheat, rice or potato starch, gelatin, tragacanth, methylcellulose and/or polyvinylpyrrolidone, if desired, disintegrants, such as the abovementioned starches, furthermore carboxymethyl starch, crosslinked polyvinylpyrrolidone, agar, alginic acid or a salt thereof, such as sodium alginate; auxiliaries are primarily glidants, flow-regulators and lubricants, for example silicic acid, talc, stearic acid or salts thereof, such as magnesium or calcium stearate, and/or polyethylene glycol. Sugar-coated tablet cores are provided with suitable coatings which, if desired, are resistant to gastric juice, using, inter alia, concentrated sugar solutions which, if desired, contain gum arabic, talc, polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyethylene glycol and/or titanium dioxide, coating solutions in suitable organic solvents or solvent mixtures or, for the preparation of gastric juice-resistant coatings, solutions of suitable cellulose preparations, such as acetylcellulose phthalate or hydroxypropylmethylcellulose phthalate. Colorants or pigments, for example to identify or to indicate different doses of active ingredient, may be added to the tablets or sugar-coated tablet coatings.
Other orally utilizable pharmaceutical preparations are hard gelatin capsules, and also soft closed capsules made of gelatin and a plasticizer, such as glycerol or sorbitol. The hard gelatin capsules may contain the active ingredient in the form of granules, for example in a mixture with fillers, such as lactose, binders, such as starches, and/or lubricants, such as talc or magnesium stearate, and, if desired, stabilizers. In soft capsules, the active ingredient is preferably dissolved or suspended in suitable liquids, such as fatty oils, paraffin oil or liquid polyethylene glycols, it also being possible to add stabilizers.
Suitable rectally utilizable pharmaceutical preparations are, for example, suppositories, which consist of a combination of the active ingredient with a suppository base. Suitable suppository bases are, for example, natural or synthetic triglycerides, paraffin hydrocarbons, polyethylene glycols or higher alkanols. Furthermore, gelatin rectal capsules which contain a combination of the active ingredient with a base substance may also be used. Suitable base substances are, for example, liquid triglycerides, polyethylene glycols or paraffin hydrocarbons.
Suitable preparations for parenteral administration are primarily aqueous solutions of an active ingredient in water-soluble form, for example a water-soluble salt, and furthermore suspensions of the active ingredient, such as appropriate oily injection suspensions, using suitable lipophilic solvents or vehicles, such as fatty oils, for example sesame oil, or synthetic fatty acid esters, for example ethyl oleate or triglycerides, or aqueous injection suspensions which contain viscosity-increasing substances, for example sodium carboxymethylcellulose, sorbitol and/or dextran, and, if necessary, also stabilizers.
The dose of the active ingredient depends on the warm-blooded animal species, the age and the individual condition and on the manner of administration. In the normal case, an approximate daily dose of about 10 mg to about 250 mg is to be estimated in the case of oral administration for a patient weighing approximately 75 kg.

EXAMPLE 73
A solution of 1.5 g (2.8 mmol) of N-(1-benzyloxycarbonylcyclopentyl)-N-pentanoyl-N-[2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-ylmethyl]-amine in 20 ml of dioxan is hydrogenated with the addition of 0.3 g of Pd/C (10%) in a manner analogous to that described in Example 56. After purification by means of flash-chromatography (silica gel; system S2) the N-(1-carboxycyclopentyl)-N-pentanoyl-N-[2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-ylmethyl]-amine is obtained in the form of a foam [R.sub.f : 0.29 (system S2)].
The starting material can be prepared, for example, as follows:
a) A mixture of 2.72 g (10 mmol) of 4-bromomethyl-2'-cyano-biphenyl, 2.63 g (12 mmol) of 1-aminocyclopentane-carboxylic acid benzyl ester, 3.4 ml (20 mmol) of Hunig base and 10 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide is heated to 130.degree.-140.degree. (bath temperature) for 2 hours while stirring. After cooling, the reaction mixture is poured onto 50 ml of ice/water. Extraction using ethyl acetate yields the crude N-(1-benzyloxycarbonylcyclopentyl)-N-(2'-cyanobiphenyl-4-ylmethyl)-amine, which forms a hydrochloride melting between 180.degree. and 182.degree. (ethanol/diethyl ether).
b) A solution of 2.9 g (6.5 mmol) of N-(1-benzyloxycarbonylcyclopentyl)-N-(2'-cyano-biphenyl-4-ylmethyl)-amine hydrochloride and 4.4 ml (26 mmol) of Hunig base in 50 ml of ethyl acetate is treated with 1.1 g (9 mmol) of pentanoyl chloride, and the mixture is stirred for 15 hours at 25.degree.-30.degree.. After the addition of a further 0.5 g of pentanoyl chloride the mixture is stirred for a further 8 hours. The reaction mixture is then treated with 10 ml of aqueous ammonia solution (5%) and stirred for 0,5 hours. The ethyl acetate phase is separated, washed in succession with 2 N-hydrochloric acid, water and sodium hydrogencarbonate solution, dried and evaporated. The N-(1-benzyloxycarbonylcyclopentyl)-N-(2'-cyanobiphenyl-4-ylmethyl)-N-pentanoyl-amine is thus obtained in the form of a brown oil [R.sub.f : 0.53 (system B7)], which is used for further reactions in crude form.

The N-(1-carboxycyclohexyl)-N-pentanoyl-N-[2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-ylmethyl]-amine is thus obtained in the form of colourless crystals (from ethyl acetate) melting between 134.degree. and 136.degree..
The starting material can be prepared, for example, as follows:
a) The N-(1-benzyloxycarbonylcyclohexyl)-N-(2'-cyanobiphenyl-4-ylmethyl)-amine, which forms a hydrochloride melting between 164.degree. and 166.degree. (isopropanol), is obtained in a manner analogous to that described in Example 73a).
b) A solution of 2.9 g (6.8 mmol) of N-(1-benzyloxycarbonylcyclohexyl)-N-(2'-cyanobiphenyl-4-ylmethyl)-amine and 4.4 ml (26 mmol) of Hunig base in 50 ml of ethyl acetate is treated with 1.1 g (9 mmol) of pentanoyl chloride, and the mixture is heated to reflux for 24 hours. After cooling, the reaction mixture is treated with 20 ml of aqueous ammonia solution (2N) and stirred for 1 hour. The organic phase is separated, washed in succession with 2 N-hydrochloric acid, saturated sodium hydrogencarbonate solution and brine, dried and evaporated. The N-(1-benzyloxycarbonylcyclohexyl)-N-(2'-cyanobiphenyl-4-ylmethyl)-N-pentanoyl-amine is thus obtained in the form of a brown oil [R.sub.f : 0.44 (toluene/methanol=19:1)], which is used for further reactions in crude form.
c) A mixture of 3.3 g (6.5 mmol) of N-(1-benzyloxycarbonylcyclohexyl)-N-(2'-cyanobiphenyl-4-ylmethyl)-N-pentanoyl-amine, 4.1 g (12.3 mmol) of tributyltin azide and 30 ml of o-xylene is heated to reflux for 44 hours. Working-up of the mixture in a manner analogous to that described in Example 23 yields the N-(1-benzyloxycarbonylcyclohexyl)-N-pentanoyl-N-[2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-ylmethyl]-amine in the form of light-brown crystals melting between 189.degree. and 190.degree. (from ethyl acetate/diethyl ether).

The residue is worked up using water and ethyl acetate. The organic phase is dried and purified by means of flash-chromatography (200 g of silica gel; system N4). The (S)-N-(1-benzyloxycarbonyl-5-benzyloxycarbonyl-amino-pent-1-yl)-N-[2'-(1-triphenylmethyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-ylmethyl]-amine is obtained in the form of a brown oil [R.sub.f : 0.18 (system N3)].

The solution is cooled to 0.degree. and treated with 0.408 ml of N,N-diisopropyl-N-ethyl-amine and subsequently with 0.29 ml of pentanoyl chloride. The mixture is stirred for 15 minutes in an ice bath and then for 16 hours at room temperature. The mixture is then diluted with CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2, washed in succession with 1 N-sodium hydroxide solution, 1 N-hydrochloric acid, water and brine, and dried using MgSO.sub.4. After purification by means of flash-chromatography (200 g of silica gel; system N3) the (S)-N-(1-benzyloxycarbonyl-5-benzyloxycarbonylamino-pent-1-yl)-N-pentanoyl-N-[2'-(1-triphenylmethyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-ylmethyl]-amine is obtained in the form of a brownish oil [R.sub.f : 0.34 (system N2)].
c) 1.07 g of (S)-N-(1-benzyloxycarbonyl-5-benzyloxycarbonylamino-pent-1-yl)-N-pentanoyl-N-[2'-(1-triphenylmethyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-ylmethyl]-amine are dissolved in 15 ml of dioxane. This solution is treated with 1.5 ml of a solution of hydrogen chloride in dioxane (7 N), the mixture is stirred for 4.5 hours at 40.degree. and then evaporated, and the residue is purified by means of flash-chromatography (200 g of silica gel; system N6). The (S)-N-(1-benzyloxycarbonyl-5-benzyloxycarbonylamino-pent-1-yl)-N-pentanoyl-N-[2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-ylmethyl]-amine [R.sub.f : 0.42 (system N7)] is thus obtained.

After cooling, the mixture is evaporated. The residue is treated with 20 ml of methanolic hydrochloric acid (3N), and the mixture is stirred for 1 hour and then evaporated. The residue is taken up in diethyl ether. The ethereal solution is extracted using 1N-sodium hydroxide solution. The aqueous phase is acidified to pH 3 with concentrated hydrochloric acid and is extracted using CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2. The combined organic phases are dried using MgSO.sub.4 and are concentrated. The residue is purified by means of flash-chromatography (220 g of silica gel; CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2 / acetone=9:1). Crystallisation from pentane yields the N-butanesulfonyl-N-(2-ethoxycarbonyl-2,2-penta-methylen-ethyl)-N-[2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-ylmethyl]-amine [m.p.: 121.degree. (decomposition) ].
