(-)-N-(Cyclopropylmethyl)-4,14-dimethoxymorphinan-6-one (2) was synthesized with 4,14-dimethoxy-N-methyl-morphinan-6-one (1) as starting material. In vivo and in vitro experiments show 2 (cyprodime) to be a pure opioid receptor antagonist. Some of these tests (opioid receptor binding assays, guinea pig ileal longitudinal muscle preparation, rat and mouse vas deferens preparation, acetic acid writhing antagonism (test) indicate that 2 is a selective μ opioid receptor antagonist.

The μ-selective opioid antagonist cyprodime has been prepared in a six-step sequence starting from naltrexone.The 3-hydroxy group of naltrexone was removed via tetrazolyl ether (3) which was hydrogenated catalytically to give 17-cyclopropylmethyl-4,5α-epo

A series of cyprodime-related compounds (2, 4-12, and 26) has been synthesized and evaluated for opioid agonist and antagonist activity with the mouse vas deferens and guinea pig ileum preparations. None of the changes to cyprodime, including the introduc
