Abstract
By focusing on 4,5-epoxymorphinan, a traditional opioid skeleton but a new structure in the opioid kappa-agonist research field, and by rationally applying the 'message-address concept' and 'accessory site hypothesis,' we discovered a new chemical class opioid kappa-agonist, TRK-820 (1). Its development as an antipruritus is now in the final stage. Here, the full scope of its design, synthesis, and structure-activity relationship are described.Entities:
