In several steps, 5, 14‐ O ‐dimethylnaltrexone ( 3 ) and 5, 14‐ O ‐dimethylnaloxone ( 4 ) were prepared starting from 5, 14‐ O ‐dimethyloxycodone ( 5 ). Compound 3 exhibited opioid agonism in vitro (guinea‐pig ileum and mouse vas deferens preparations) and antagonism in vivo (AcOH‐writhing test in mice), while compound 4 was found to be an agonist in vitro and in vivo .
