Design, Synthesis and Pharmacology of Fluorescent Narcotic Analogs.

Abstract

Fluorescent moieties can be synthesized into narcotic structures with retention of analgesic activity. Substituted acridines are a prolific sources of fluorescent groups which can be synthesized by reasonable methods and introduced into narcotic structures. Favorable spectral properties include the quantum yield of fluorescence, the wavelength of excitation and emission and the extinction coefficient of absorption. Preliminary pharmacological data are reported for a series of fluorescent meperidine analogs.
