Chemistry:R1317
From HandWiki
R1317 is a desmethylprodine analog in which the N-methyl group is replaced by a cinnamyl group. This change in sidechain endows the compound with an increase in potency. The compound is 261 times more potent[clarification needed] than meperidine in mice[1] and 1100 times more potent in rats. In another article it was stated to be 785 times more potent than meperidine.[2]
Despite this high potency, it is not the most potent 4-phenylpiperidine-reverse ester ever created. The most potent 4-phenylpiperidine-reverse ester ever created is R1480.[1] R1480 is stated to have a potency 1500-3180 times higher than meperidine in mice and 3040 times higher in rats.
