Ethylmorphine (also known as codethyline dionine and ethyl morphine) is an opiate narcotic analgesic (pain killer).Ethylmorphine was invented in Germany at Merck in 1884 and was used as a weaker alternative to heroin for all indications. Chemically ethylmorphine is a morphine molecule with a -OC2H5 group substituted for the aromatic 3-OH group. Therefore the closest chemical relative of ethylmorphine is codeine also known as methylmorphine.
