An enkephalin analogue coupled to 'aminofentanyl' has been synthesized and tested for biological activities at the mu and delta opioid receptors. Aminofentanyl which represents a structural derivative of fentanyl has been synthesized by acylation of 1-(2-phenethyl)-4-(N-anilino)piperidine with phthaloyl protected beta-alaninyl
