OPIOID RECEPTORS Class of 7-transmembrane G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) Mediate analgesia (pain cessation) Agonismof the three well known subtypes causes: μ opioid receptor: analgesia, sedation, respiratory depression, euphoria, constipation and dependence δopioid receptor: analgesia and dependence κopioid receptor: analgesia, sedation, changes in mood and psychomimetic properties Opioid receptors are regulated by opiates: • -endogenous (endorphins, enkephalins, dynorphins ) -exogenous (synthetic and natural compounds) Kieffer, et. al.

CONCLUSIONS Salvinorin A is the first, highly selective and potent non alkaloid κ-opioid receptor agonist The κ-opioid receptor is responsible for analgesia and psychomimetic properties Salvia diterpenes share a common deoxyxylulose phosphate pathway Total Synthesis of Salvinorin A achieved by Evans’ group Key TransannularCyclizationin 99% yield and 95% diastereoselectivity The combination of natural scaffold + total synthesis + SAR studies provides greater insight into the pharmacophore of salvinorin A Synthesis of key intermediate of 20-Norsalvinorin A may provide faster route to Salvinorin A analogues
