Substituted piperidines--highly potent renin inhibitors due to induced fit adaptation of the active site.

The identification, synthesis and activity of a novel class of piperidine renin inhibitors is presented. The most active compounds show activities in the picomolar range and are among the most potent renin inhibitors ever identified.
