Effect of 9-hydroxylation on benzomorphan antagonist activity
Abstract
In a benzomorphan bearing an antagonist side chain, introduction on the methano bridge of a hydroxyl oriented away from nitrogen has little effect on antagonist activity whereas a hydroxyl oriented toward nitrogen enhances this activity. Hydroxylation tends to decrease analgesic activity.
