The bimorphinans 6 and 7 have been prepared from 14 ‐ O ‐methylnaloxone ( 2 ) and 14‐ O ‐methylnaltrexone ( 3 ), respectively. The known compounds 2 and 3 were synthesized by a different route than the route described. Bimorphinan 7 possessed a similar χ receptor affinity to norbinaltorphimine ( 1 ) but had a reduced selectivity due to marked increases in μ and δ receptor affinity. Bimorphinan 6 was both a less selective and less potent χ antagonist than 1 .
