Salutaridine and its derivatives as thebaine-equivalents in the synthesis of aporphines [PDF]
Here we report on the transformation of tetracyclic morphinan salutaridine (1) into 2,3,10,11-tetrasubstituted (R)-aporphines. This method serves as another chemical proof of the previously verified biosynthetic connection with pentacyclic ...

Investigation of the acid/base behaviour of the opium alkaloid thebaine in LC-ESI-MS mobile phase by NMR spectroscopy [PDF]
As part of a research programme to establish an analytical method for the simultaneous detection of the five major opium alkaloids in poppy seeds by liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization–mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS) it was discovered that the ...

Semi-synthesis of novel thebaine derivatives with low cytotoxicity and their antibacterial and antihemolytic properties [PDF]
In the present study, some new 1,2,3-triazole-tethered analogs of N -northebaine were designed and synthesized. The anti-bacterial properties of novel thebaine derivatives were studied on Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus ) and Escherichia coli ( E. coli

Thebaine is Selectively Demethylated by Thebaine 6-O-Demethylase and Codeine-3-O-demethylase at Distinct Binding Sites: A Computational Study [PDF]
Two homologous 2-oxoglutarate-dependent (ODD) nonheme enzymes thebaine 6-O-demethylase (T6ODM) and codeine-3-O-demethylase (CODM), are involved in the morphine biosynthesis pathway from thebaine, catalyzing the O-demethylation reaction with precise ...

B-323 Urinary Thebaine Improves Opioid Interpretation in Pain Management [PDF]
Poppy seed from Papaver somniferum plant is used in bakery results in positive urine test for Morphine and Codeine up to 48 h. This leads to prescription compliance failure in the setting of clinical pain management.
