Abstract
The 5-methyl and 14-ethoxy substituted analogues (compounds 2-4) of th e delta opioid receptor antagonist naltrindole showed similar selectiv ity when compared with the reference drug. Compound 2 was a delta rece ptor antagonist in the mouse vas deferens preparation (MVD) exhibiting considerably higher selectivity ratios than naltrindole, while compou nd 4 was found to be a full and potent delta receptor agonist in the M VD.
