✦ Synopsis
The 5-methyl and 14-ethoxy substituted analogues (compounds 2 -4) of the 6 opioid receptor antagonist naltrindole showed similar selectivity when compared with the reference drug. Compound 2 was a 6 receptor antagonist in the mouse vas deferens preparation (MVD) exhibiting considerably higher selectivity ratios than naltrindole, while compound 4 was found to be a full and potent 8 receptor agonist in the MVD.

Ethyl-5-methylnaloxone (7) and 14-0-ethyl-5-methylnaltrexone (8) have been prepared starting from 14-0-ethyl-5-methyloxycodone (9) in several steps. Both, 7 and 8, were found to be opioid antagonists in vitro and in vivo. Compound 7 exhibited some selectivity forp opioid receptors, whereas compound
