6,14-Endoethenotetrahydrooripavine

6,14-Endoethenotetrahydrooripavine is the central nucleus, or backbone, of a class of morphinan opioids known as the Bentley compounds and may be considered their "privileged scaffold".[1][2] These include but are not limited to etorphine and buprenorphine. They usually have thebaine or oripavine as their precursor in their syntheses (and are thus termed "thevinols" and "orvinols", respectively).
