research around dopamine agonists, we have found a promising compound in S-PD148903 that represents a newtype of prodrug, which in the rat is bioactivated to the catecholamine S-5,6-diOH-DPAT, known to display mixed dopamine D(1)/D(2) receptor agonist properties just like apomorphine. This prodrug has an enone structure which by an oxidative bioactivation mechanism is converted to the corresponding
