The synthesis and analgesic testing of 3-cyclohexanol (1) are described.Prior (SAR) studies led us to conclude that the pyran ring of 9-nor-9β-hydroxyhexahydrocannabinol (HHC) was not necessary for the expression of biological activity in this series of cannabinoids.Analysis of models and the use of molecular mechanics calculations suggested that a simpler compound, such as 1, would possess the biological activity of HHC.Compound 1 was prepared in nine steps from acetonitrile (2).Biological testing in five models of pain shows that compound 1 and morphine are equally potent as analgesics and demonstrates that the pyran ring of HHC is not necessary for biological activity.Further simplification of 1 was pursued by the synthesis of 4--2-pentanol (17), but this derivative exhibits significantly reduced analgesic activity.

Process for making 1-(3-benzyloxyphenyl)-1,1-dimethylheptane, a valuable intermediate for the preparation of analgesic agents, which comprises benzylation of 3-hydroxyacetophenone to produce 3-benzyloxyacetophenone which is converted to 1-(3-benzyloxyphenyl)-1-methylheptan-1-ol via Grignard reaction with n-hexylmagnesium bromide; chlorination of said heptanol by reaction with hydrogen chloride followed by methylation of the thus-produced 1-(3-benzyloxyphenyl)-1-chloro-1-methylheptane with trimethylaluminum.
