Abstract
The synthesis of two octapeptides, H · Asp(β‐NH~2~)‐Arg‐Val‐Tyr‐Val‐His‐Pro‐Phe · OH and H · Asp(β‐OH)‐Arg‐Val‐Tyr‐Val‐His‐Pro‐Phe · OH, is described in detail (preliminary communications see footnote 3). The products show a very strong hypertensive activity, and may be identical with the hitherto unknown Val^5^‐hypertensin II of ox blood.

## Abstract The preliminarily published synthesis(^4^) of decapeptides with the amino acid sequence of Val^5^‐hypertensin I has been repeated several times. The products showed a high hypertensive activity, comparable with that of the corresponding octapeptides [Val^5^‐hypertensin II and Val^5^‐hyp
