A series of 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]pyrazine derivatives with human renin inhibitory activity, which incorporate (1S,2S)-2-amino-1,3-dicyclohexyl-1-hydroxypropane, statine (Sta), and (3S,4S)-4-amino-5-cyclohexyl-3-hydroxy-pentanoic acid (ACHPA) transition-state mimetics, have been prepared. Structure-activity relationships for renin inhibitory activity in the series are consistent with the 2-[8-isobutyl-6-phenyl-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]pyrazin-3-yl]-3-(3 pyridyl)propionic acid
