Abstract:
:The N-arginyl derivative of methionine-enkephalin (fragment 60-65 of beta-lipotropin) has been shown to be equiactive with the parent pentapeptide, despite the fact that the tyrosine amino group in this compound has been neutralized by the formation of an amide linkage. A series of N-(amino acid) derivatives of (-)-5,9 alpha-diethyl-2'-hydroxybenzomorphan was prepared and evaluated for analgesic activity. In vitro activities were found to vary greatly, depending on the nature of the amino acid used. The N-arginyl derivative was found to be equipotent to (-)-5,9 alpha-diethyl-2'hydroxybenzomorphan and also to methionine-enkephaline in the naloxone binding assay.
