Twelve 2',6'-dimethyl-L-tyrosine (Dmt) analogues linked to a pyrazinone platform were synthesized as 3- or 6-[H-Dmt-NH(CH(2))(n)],3- or 6-R-2(1H)-pyrazinone (n=1-4). 3-[H-Dmt-NH-(CH(2))(4)]-6-beta-phenethyl-5-methyl-2(1H)-pyrazinone 11 bound to mu-opioid receptors with high affinity (K(i)mu=0.13 nM; K(i)delta/K(i)mu=447) with mu-agonism (GPI IC(50)=15.9 nM) and weak delta-antagonism (MVD pA(2)=6.35). Key factors affecting opioid affinity and functional bioactivity are the length of the aminoalkyl chain linked to Dmt and the nature of the R residue. These data present a simplified method for the formation of pyrazinone opioidmimetics and new lead compounds.
