RESUMO
A series of bivalent hydroxy ether butorphan ligands were prepared and their binding affinities at the opioid receptors determined. Addition of a hydroxy group to a hydrocarbon chain can potentiate binding affinity up to 27- and 86-fold at the mu and kappa opioid receptors, respectively. Two bivalent ligands with sub-nanomolar binding affinity at the mu and kappa opioid receptors were discovered.
