Abstract

Some κ opioid receptor agonists of the arylacetamide class, for example, ICI 199441 (1), were found to strongly inhibit the activity of cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) (1: CYP2D6 IC50 = 26 nM). Certain analogs bearing a substituted sulfonylamino group, for example, 13, were discovered to have significantly reduced CYP2D6 inhibitory activity (13: CYP2D6 IC50 > 10 μM) while displaying high affinity toward the cloned human κ opioid receptor, good κ/δ and κ/μ selectivity, and potent in vitro and in vivo agonist activity.
