Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid drug primarily used for anesthesia and analgesia by activating the m-opioid receptors (MOR). Approved for medical use in the United States in 1968, fentanyl is 50-100 times more potent than morphine. Ingesting a small quantity can cause an overdose. In the U.S., fentanyl is a Schedule II controlled substance. This is a dedicated library for fentanyl analogues with 184 spectra, including over fifty structural isomers. About Spectral Libraries:
• Spectral library searching has long been an extraordinarily valuable tool in the analytical chemist's toolbox.
• Spectral library searching based on digital matching of spectral signatures is a very effective way of performing qualitative identification of compounds. Because FTIR and Raman spectroscopic signatures are based on molecular functional groups, even if the exact compound is not present in the libraries, the list of matching compounds from a spectral library search can often lead to identification—or at least classification—of the material.
• Our extensive series of spectral libraries include information specific to application, industry or spectral technique. Thermo Scientific libraries span applications for Hazmat, Forensics, Food, Polymers and Organic Chemistry.
