bu09059 bu09059 bu09059 is a potent, selective, short-acting (non-"inactivating") antagonist of the κ-opioid receptor (kor). it was derived from the irreversible (long-acting) kor antagonist jdtic in search of an antagonist with a reversible profile of inactivation of the kor that could be used with less concern to treat psychiatric disorders. in addition to its reversibility, bu09059 is much more selective for the kor than jdtic, showing 15-fold and 616-fold preference for the kor over the μ- and δ-opioid receptors (ki = 1.72 nm, 26.5 nm, and 1060 nm, respectively). bu09059identifiers iupac name ethyl 2--3-propanoate cas number1541206-05-6pubchem cid134817175chemical and physical dataformulac28h37n3o5molar mass495.620 g·mol−13d model (jsmol)interactive image smiles ccoc(=o)c(cn1cc(c)((c)c1)c2cccc(o)c2)nc(=o)3cc4ccc(o)cc4cn3 inchi inchi=1s/c28h37n3o5/c1-4-36-27(35)25(30-26(34)24-13-19-8-9-23(33)12-20(19)15-29-24)17-31-11-10-28(3,18(2)16-31)21-6-5-7-22(32)14-21/h5-9,12,14,18,24-25,29,32-33h,4,10-11,13,15-17h2,1-3h3,(h,30,34)/t18-,24+,25?,28+/m0/s1key:rkgrjmycisusnk-xtninknlsa-n
