O u?, Nature, 1993, 362(6415): p. 31-8.1, 2; and Shuck, M. E., et al., Cloning and characterization of multiple forms of the 10 ( NONO human kidney ROM-K potassium channel, J Biol Chem, 1994, 269(39): p. 24261-70) is a member of the inward rec VU591 tifier family of potassium channels expressed in two regions of the kidney: thick ascending loop of Henle (TALH) and 15 cortical collecting duct (CCD) (see Hebert, S. C., et al., Molecular diversity and regulation of renal potassium chan nels, Physiol Rev. 2005, 85(1): p. 319-713). At the TALH, ROMK participates in potassium recycling across the luminal -Sirr membrane which is critical for the function of the Na/K/ 2Cl co-transporter, the rate-determining step for salt reuptake in this part of the nephron. At the CCD, ROMK Patent application publication number WO2010/129379, provides a pathway for potassium secretion that is tightly published Nov. 11, 2010 having common representative coupled to Sodium uptake through the amiloride-sensitive Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp., (also published as US2010/ Sodium channel (see Reinalter, S.C., et al., Pharmacotyping 25 0286123 on same date), describes ROMK inhibitors having of hypokalaemic salt-losing tubular disorders, Acta Physiol the generic formula: Scand, 2004, 181 (4): p. 513-21; and Wang, W., Renal potas sium channels: recent developments, Curr Opin Nephrol Hypertens, 2004, 13(5): p. 549-55). Selective inhibitors of the ROMK channel (also referred to herein as inhibitors of 30 ROMK or ROMK inhibitors) are expected to represent novel diuretics for the treatment of hypertension and other condi tions where treatment with a diuretic would be beneficial with potentially reduced liabilities (i.e., hypo- or hyperkalemia, new onset of diabetes, dyslipidemia) over the currently used 35 clinical agents (see Lifton, R. P. A. G. Gharavi, and D.
