Abstract
Morphinone (3) and N-(cyclopropylmethyl)normorphinone (4) were synthesized and tested on electrically stimulated smooth muscle preparations (guinea pig ileum and mouse vas deferens) and in mice. Compound 3 behaved as an agonist and 4 as an antagonist in vitro and in vivo. No pronounced nonequilibrium agonist or antagonist activity was observed with either compound.
