Synthesis and analgesic activity of some long-acting piperidinospiro derivatives of methadone.
A congener of methadone, in which the metabolically labile C-6 dimethylamino moiety was replaced with a piperidinospiro derivative, was reduced and acetylated. This conversion produced a marked increase in the duration of analgesia, a trend similar to that found for methadone.
