The present invention provides cationic lipids and lipid nanoparticle formulations comprising these lipids, alone or in combination with other lipids. These lipid nanoparticles may be formulated with nucleic acids to facilitate their intracellular delivery both in vitro and for therapeutic applications. The present invention also provides methods of chemical synthesis of these lipids, lipid nanoparticle preparation and formulation with nucleic acids.

In one aspect, the invention relates to compounds having the formula:

##STR00001##

where R.sup.1-R.sup.6, a, b, and Z are as defined in the specification, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. These compounds have neprilysin inhibition activity. In another aspect, the invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds; methods of using such compounds; and processes and intermediates for preparing such compounds.
