3-Trans-cinnamyl-8-propionyl-3,8-diazabicyclo[3,2,1]octane 1, its monocyclic analog 4-trans-cinnamyl-1-propionyl-cis-2,6-dimethylpiperazine 2 and their isomers having the nitrogen sustituents exchanged, 3 and 4, have been submitted to conformational analysis by molecular mechanics and H-1 NMR spectroscopy. The results of molecular modeling indicate that, while the monocyclic compound 2 has a preferred conformation very similar to the corresponding bicyclic compound 1, compound 4 is quite different with respect to 3; it is the only compound with equatorially oriented substituents on the carbon atoms of the hexacyclic ring. This feature could explain the low affinity of 4 towards mu-receptors, as compared with the high affinity of 1-3.

The results of molecular modeling indicate that, while the monocyclic compound 2 has a preferred conformation very similar to the corresponding bicyclic compound 1, compound 4 is quite different with respect to 3; it is the only compound with equatorially oriented substituents on the carbon atoms of the hexacyclic ring. This feature could explain the low affinity of 4 towards mu-receptors, as compared with the high affinity of 1-3.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
