Abstract

Novel pyridyl imidazole derivatives of formula(I) inhibit effectively the action of angiotensin II and have a superior antihypertensive activity: ##STR1## wherein: A is a straight, branched or cyclic C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl or alkenyl group, OR.sup.1 (wherein R.sup.1 is a hydrogen, or a straight, branched or cyclic C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl or alkenyl radical), or NR.sup.2 R.sup.3 (wherein R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are independently a hydrogen, or a straight, branched or cyclic C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl radical); B is a group of the following formula ##STR2## D is a hydrogen; a halogen; a straight, branched or cyclic C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.6 alkenyl or C.sub.2 -C.sub.6 alkynyl group which is optionally substituted with OH, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy radical, CO.sub.2 R.sup.1, COR.sup.1, CON(R.sup.1).sub.2 or N(R.sup.1).sub.2, wherein R.sup.1 is the same as defined above; tetrazol-5-yl; a perfluoro-C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl group; or N(R.sup.1).sub.2, OR.sup.1, CO.sub.2 R.sup.1 or CON(R.sup.1).sub.2, wherein R.sup.1 is the same as defined above; E is a hydrogen; a halogen; a straight or branched C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.6 alkenyl or C.sub.2 -C.sub.6 alkynyl group which is optionally substituted with OH, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy radical, CO.sub.2 R.sup.1, COR.sup.1, CON(R.sup.1).sub.2 or N(R.sup.1).sub.2, wherein R.sup.1 is the same as defined above; a perfluoro-C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl group; NO.sub.2 ; or N(R.sup.1).sub.2 or OR.sup.1, wherein R.sup.1 is the same as defined above; and n is 0 or an integer of 1 to 4.
