## Abstract Several morphinanone agonists differently substituted at C(3), C(4), C(5) and C (14) and antagonists of the 4‐hydroxy and 3, 4‐dimethoxy series were prepared by conventional chemistry. It was demonstrated that the oxygenation pattern in the bay‐area, encompassing C(3) and C(4), is impor

Abstract
The synthesis of several 14‐hydroxymorphinans, using oxymorphone (= 3, 14‐dihydroxy‐4,5‐epoxy‐N‐methylmorphinan‐6‐one, 1) as starting material, is described. The antinociceptive potency of the N‐methyl substituted 14‐hydroxy‐morphinans was determined. Thus, in order of antinociceptive potency, 14‐hydroxy‐4‐methoxy‐N‐methylmorphinan‐6‐one (5) >4,5‐epoxy‐14‐hydroxy‐N‐methyl‐morphinan‐6‐one (3)>4, 14‐dihydroxy‐N‐methylmorphinan‐6‐one (4)>14‐hydroxy‐4‐methoxy‐N‐methylmorphinan (11) ≈4, 14‐dihydroxy‐N‐methylmorphinan (12). The most potent compound in this series, 14‐hydroxy‐4‐methoxy‐N‐methyl‐morphinan‐6‐one (5), was found to have about six times the potency of morphine; it was equipotent with levorphanol.
