CAS 159723-96-3: benzyl 3-hydroxymorphinan-17-carboxylate
Description:Benzyl 3-hydroxymorphinan-17-carboxylate is a chemical compound that belongs to the class of morphinans, which are derivatives of morphine. This substance is characterized by its morphinan backbone, which is modified with a hydroxyl group at the 3-position and a carboxylate ester at the 17-position, specifically with a benzyl group. The presence of the hydroxyl group contributes to its potential solubility in polar solvents, while the carboxylate moiety can influence its reactivity and interaction with biological systems. This compound may exhibit pharmacological properties, potentially acting on opioid receptors, which are involved in pain modulation and other physiological processes. Its specific applications and effects would depend on further research, including studies on its efficacy, safety, and mechanism of action. As with many morphinan derivatives, it is essential to handle this compound with care, considering its potential biological activity and regulatory status.
