Synthesis, Characterization And Analgesic Activity Of Mitragynine Analogues

Mitragyna speciosa contains many alkaloids and mitragynine (MG) is its most abundant alkaloid and has received much attention due to its analgesic property. In this work, a series of MG analogues, which includes 7- hydroxymitragynine (7-0HMG), Na salts of 7-hydroxymitragynine (Na 7-0HMG), K salt...
