Methodology is presented for the synthesis of <b>6<i>α/β</i>-3</b>-dehydroxynaltrexamines and <b>6<i>α/β</i>-</b> <i>N</i>-methyl-3-dehydroxynaltrexamines. A stereoselective route is provided for each target compound while a novel one-pot method for the synthesis of 6 <b><i>α/β</i>-3</b>-<i>N</i>-methyl-3-dehydroxynaltrexamines is also explored. These results enable the versatile and efficient preparation of key epoxymorphinan intermediates to facilitate future selective opioid ligand discovery ...[more]
