note:the image of oxymorphone is a not right, the single bonded o's hould be OH's, as in dihydroxy. (comment moved from page by Dirk Beetstra T C 08:53, 13 November 2006 (UTC)).
[edit] Origin of propenyl and cinnamyl ester info
Where did this chemistry info about propenyl and cinnamyl esters come from? I've studied opioids extensively and have never heard of this. I would be hard pressed to find research to back it up. I would think if those groups were known to be potent, there would be research. Furthermore, acetic acid can form an ester with the hydroxy groups, but since cinnamyl and propenyl groups are not carboxylic acids, they cannot form an ester bond. If one were to condense cinnamyl and propenyl alcohols with the 6 and 14 hydroxys, you would have a propenyl ether and cinnamyl ether.-Junky getting a PhD—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 144.92.229.97 (talk • contribs).
