Abstract

The presence of a 6,7-fused indole group in the indolomorphinans was considered to be responsible for the delta opioid selectivity for this class of ligands. Herein is shown that 5'-halogenated analogs of oxymorphindole are opioids with little selectivity for delta receptors over mu opioid receptors.
