N-Phenethylnoroxymorphone is an opioid analgesic drug derived from oxymorphone by replacing the N-methyl group with β-phenethyl. It was first synthesised in Japan in the 1960s but has been relatively little studied, though it is known to be a potent opioid analgesic with around 12 times the potency of oxymorphone itself. It has subsequently appeared as a designer drug, first being reported in October 2023 in Pennsylvania, USA.
