Synthetic fentanyls evaluation and characterization by infrared spectroscopy employing in silico methods

TLDR
In this article, the authors applied factorial design to decide the best conditions to perform quantum calculations to obtain the infrared spectra of 46 seized nonpharmaceutical fentanyls (NPFs) and used multivariate classification to establish the main spectral characteristics of these substances.

Fentanyl, fentanyl analogs and novel synthetic opioids: A comprehensive review

TL;DR: In 2014, the first illicit pills containing fentanyl, fentanyl analogs, and other novel synthetic opioids such as U-47700 were detected as mentioned in this paper, and since then, fentanyl has caused deaths in every state and fentanyl and its analogs have completely infiltrated the North American heroin supply.
