     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION 
     This invention in its broadest aspects relates to the thiazine and thiazepine compounds of formula I above, to compositions containing such compounds and to the method of using such compounds as anti-hypertensive agents. The term lower alkyl used in defining various symbols refers to straight or branched chain radicals having up to seven carbons. The preferred lower alkyl groups are up to four carbons with methyl and ethyl most preferred. Similarly, the terms lower alkoxy and lower alkylthio refer to such lower alkyl groups attached to an oxygen or sulfur. 
     The term cycloalkyl refers to saturated rings of 3 to 7 carbon atoms with cyclopentyl and cyclohexyl being most preferred. 
     The term halogen refers to chloro, bromo, and fluoro. 
     The term halo substituted lower alkyl refers to such lower alkyl groups described above in which one or more hydrogens have been replaced by chloro, bromo, or fluoro groups such as trifluoromethyl, which is preferred, pentafluoroethyl, 2,2,2-trichloroethyl, chloromethyl, bromomethyl, etc. Similarly, the terms amino substituted lower alkyl and hydroxy substituted lower alkyl refer to such lower alkyl groups described above in which one or more hydrogens have been replaced by -NH 2  or OH, i.e., aminomethyl, 2-aminoethyl, 3-hydroxypropyl, etc. 
     The compounds of formula I can be prepared as follows. A keto compound of the formula ##STR11## is reacted with the thiazine or thiazepine ester of the formula ##STR12## in the presence of sodium cyanoborohydride to yield the ester of formula I. Preferably, the trimethylsilylethyl ester of the thiazine or thiazepine of formula III is employed in this reaction. The resulting diester product can then be treated to remove the R 2  trimethylsilylethyl ester group such as by use of trifluoroacetic acid and anisole or by use of tetrabutylammonium fluoride while leaving the R 3  ester group in place. If desired, this monoester product can then be treated with base such as sodium hydroxide to remove the R 3  ester group and yield the corresponding diacid compound. 
     The ester products of formula I wherein ##STR13## may be obtained by employing the thiazine or thiazepine of formula III in the above reaction with the ester group already in place. 
     The ester products of formula I wherein R 2  is ##STR14## can also be obtained by treating the product of formula I wherein R 2  is hydrogen with a molar equivalent of the compound of the formula ##STR15## wherein L is a leaving group such as chlorine, bromine, tolylsulfonyloxy, etc. 
     The thiazine or thiazepine ester of formula III wherein R 5  is other than hydrogen can be prepared as follows. A phthaloyl amino acid of the formula ##STR16## is reacted with an N-substituted glycine ester of the formula 
     
         R.sub.5 --CH═N--CH.sub.2 --COOR.sub.2                  VI 
    
     in the presence of a coupling agent such as dichyclohexylcarbodiimide to yield the N-protected thiazine or thiazepine of the formula ##STR17## Treatment of the compound of formula VII with methylhydrazine removes the phthalimido protecting group and yields the desired thiazine or thiazepine ester of formula III. 
     The N-protected thiazine or thiazepine of formula VII can also be prepared by cyclizing a sulfoxide of the formula ##STR18## [prepared as set forth by Wolfe et al., Can. J. Chem., Vol. 57, p. 2412-2425 (1979)] by treatment with a mixture of trifluoroacetic acid anhydride and acetic anhydride followed by 2,6-lutidine. 
     The thiazine or thiazepine ester of formula III wherein R 5  is hydrogen can be prepared as follows. A dithiobis amino acid of the formula ##STR19## is reacted with N-carboethoxyphthalimide to give the compound of the formula ##STR20## which is treated with a glycine ester hydrochloride in the presence of base and a coupling agent such as carbonyldiimidazole to yield the compound of the formula ##STR21## The dithiobis compound of formula XI is treated with zinc dust to yield ##STR22## which is then treated with bromomethyl methyl ether in the presence of pyridine to give ##STR23## The compound of formula XIII is cyclized by treatment with camphorsulfonic acid to give the N-protected thiazine or thiazepine of the formula ##STR24## Treatment of the compound of formula XIV with methylhydrazine removes the phthalimido protecting group and yields the desired thiazine or thiazepine ester of formula III. 
     The thiazepine ester of formula III wherein X is ##STR25## can be prepared as follows. An N-protected serine, for example, a t-butyloxycarbonyl N-protected serine, is treated with methyl iodide and cesium carbonate to yield the corresponding N-protected serine methyl ester. This methyl ester is then treated with diisopropylcarbodiimide and cuprous chloride to yield the N-protected dehydroalanine methyl ester of the formula ##STR26## The N-protected dehydroalanine methyl ester of formula XV is reacted with 2-aminothiophenol and 2,6-lutidine to give the compound of formula ##STR27## The methyl ester of formula XVI is converted to the carboxylic acid and then cyclized by refluxing in xylene to give the compound of formula ##STR28## 
     The thiazepine of formula XVII is treated with a bromoacetate of the formula ##STR29## to yield the compound ##STR30## Removal of the protecting group, for example, by treating with hydrogen chloride in ethyl acetate when Prot is t-butyloxycarbonyl yields the desired thiazepine ester of formula III. 
     In the above reactions if R 4  is ##STR31## or if R 1  is amino or hydroxy substituted lower alkyl then the hydroxyl, amino, imidazolyl, mercaptan, or guanidinyl function should be protected during the coupling reaction. Suitable protecting groups include benzyloxycarbonyl, t-butoxycarbonyl, benzyl, benzhydryl, trityl, etc., and nitro in the case of guanidinyl. The protecting group is removed by hydrogenation, treatment with acid, or other known methods following completion of the reaction. 
     Preferred compounds of this invention are those of formula I wherein: 
     R 3  is hydroxy,lower alkoxy of 1 to 4 carbons, or --O--alkali metal salt. ##STR32## wherein m is zero, one, two or three. 
     R 1  is hydrogen, lower alkyl of 1 to 4 carbons, or --(CH 2 ) 4  --NH 2 . 
     R 5  is hydrogen, lower alkyl of 1 to 4 carbons, or ##STR33## wherein m is zero, one, two or three and R 14  is hydrogen, methyl, methoxy, methylthio, chloro, bromo, fluoro, or hydroxy. 
     R 2  is hydrogen, lower alkyl of 1 to 4 carbons, alkali metal salt, or ##STR34## wherein R 10  is hydrogen, straight or branched chain lower alkyl of 1 to 4 carbons, or cyclohexyl and R 11  is straight or branched chain lower alkyl of 1 to 4 carbons, cyclohexyl or phenyl. 
     Most preferred compounds of this invention are those of formula I wherein: 
     X is ##STR35## 
     R 3  is hydroxy, ethoxy, or --O--alkali metal salt. 
     R 4  is ##STR36## 
     R 1  is hydrogen. 
     R 2  is hydrogen, alkali metal salt, or ##STR37## 
     R 10  is hydrogen, straight or branched chain lower alkyl of 1 to 4 carbons, or cyclohexyl. 
     R 11  is straight or branched chain lower alkyl of 1 to 4 carbons. 
     The compounds of this invention wherein R 2  is hydrogen or R 3  is hydroxy form basic salts with various inorganic and organic bases which are also within the scope of the invention. Such salts include ammonium salts, alkali metal salts like lithium, sodium and potassium salts (which are preferred), alkaline earth metal salts like calcium and magnesium salts, salts with organic bases, e.g., dicyclohexylamine salt, benzathine, N-methyl-D-glucamine, salts with amino acids like arginine, lysine and the like. The nontoxic, physiologically acceptable salts are preferred, although other salts are also useful, e.g., in isolating or purifying the product. The salts are formed using conventional techniques. 
     The symbol * is used to represent various asymmetric centers which may be present in the compounds of formula I. Thus, the compounds of this invention can accordingly exist in diastereoisomeric forms or in mixtures thereof. The above described processes can utilize racemates, enantiomers or diastereomers as starting materials. When diastereomeric products are prepared, they can be separated by conventional chromatographic or fractional crystallization methods. 
     The compounds of formula I, and the physiologically acceptable salts thereof, are hypotensive agents. They inhibit the conversion of the decapeptide angiotensin I to angiotensin II and, therefore, are useful in reducing or relieving angiotensin related hypertension. The action of the enzyme renin on angiotensinogen, a pseudoglobulin in blood plasma, produces angiotensin I. Angiotensin I is converted by angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) to angiotensin II. The latter is an active pressor substance which has been implicated as the causative agent in several forms of hypertension in various mammalian species, e.g., humans. The compounds of this invention intervene in the angiotensinogen→(renin)→angiotensin I→angiotensin II sequence by inhibiting angiotensin converting enzyme and reducing or eliminating the formation of the pressor substance angiotensin II. Thus by the administration of a composition containing one (or a combination) of the compounds of this invention, angiotensin dependent hypertension in a species of mammal (e.g., humans) suffering therefrom is alleviated. A single dose, or preferably two to four divided daily doses, provided on a basis of about 0.1 to 100 mg. per kilogram of body weight per day is appropriate to reduce blood pressure. The substance is preferably administered orally, but parenteral routes such as the subcutaneous, intramuscular, intravenous or intraperitoneal routes can also be employed. 
     The compounds of this invention can also be formulated in combination with a diuretic for the treatment of hypertension. A combination product comprising a compound of this invention and a diuretic can be administered in an effective amount which comprises a total daily dosage of about 30 to 600 mg., preferably about 30 to 330 mg. of a compound of this invention, and about 15 to 300 mg., preferably about 15 to 200 mg. of the diuretic, to a mammalian species in need thereof. Exemplary of the diuretics contemplated for use in combination with a compound of this invention are the thiazide diuretics, e.g., chlorothiazide, hydrochlorothiazide, flumethiazide, hydroflumethiazide, bendroflumethiazide, methyclothiazide, trichlormethiazide, polythiazide or benzthiazide as well as ethacrynic acid, ticrynafen, chlorthalidone, furosemide, musolimine, bumetanide, triamterene, amiloride and spironolactone and salts of such compounds. 
     The compounds of formula I can be formulated for use in the reduction of blood pressure in compositions such as tablets, capsules or elixirs for oral administration, or in sterile solutions or suspensions for parenteral administration. About 10 to 500 mg. of a compound of formula I is compounded with physiologically acceptable vehicle, carrier, excipient, binder, preservative, stabilizer, flavor, etc., in a unit dosage form as called for by accepted pharmaceutical practice. The amount of active substance in these compositions or preparations is such that a suitable dosage in the range indicated is obtained.
