There is provided a method for the synthesis of norbuprenorphine, and ultimately buprenorphine, utilizing oripavine as the starting material. Conventional methods of producing buprenorphine utilize thebaine as the starting material, requiring an O-demethylation step, typically a low to moderate yield transformation. The present use of oripavine as a starting material does not require an O-demethylation step, since the oripavine molecule lacks an O-3 methyl group.

The present invention is directed to a buprenorphine sustained release delivery system capable of delivering buprenorphine, a metabolite, or a prodrug thereof for a duration of about 14 days to about 3 months.

The implant is produced from the flowable composition. The buprenorphine sustained release delivery system provides in situ 1-month and 3-month release profiles characterized by an exceptionally high bioavailability and minimal risk of permanent tissue damage and typically no risk of muscle necrosis.

Disclosed are prodrugs and analogs of buprenorphine.
