Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a method for identifying nicotin analogs, and more particularly to a mass spectrometry fragmentation and analysis method for nicotin analogs based on ESI-MS / MS mode. Background Technology
[0002] Nizoxins are a new class of synthetic opioids (NSOs) with 2-benzylbenzimidazole as the core. Their addictiveness, acute toxicity, and risk of death from overdose are far greater than those of morphine. The pharmacological activity of most varieties far exceeds that of fentanyl, making them the most promising new synthetic opioid psychoactive substances after fentanyl.
[0003] The core structure of nicotinic acid analogs is 2-benzylbenzimidazole. The parent nucleus is surrounded by four groups: R1, R2, R3, and R4. R1 and R2 are carbon chains, or may be combined into a carbon ring structure, without carbon-carbon double bonds; R3 is located on the left side of the benzene ring of the parent nucleus and is either hydrogen or a nitro group; R4 is a halogen (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, etc.), a hydroxyl group, or an alkoxy group. The overall structure is as follows: Additionally, an alkylene group (-(CH2)) may be present on the right side of the parent nucleus. n -).
[0004] However, due to the diverse structures of nicotin analogs, traditional analytical methods struggle to rapidly and accurately identify their structures. Mass spectrometry, as a highly sensitive and selective analytical technique, has been widely applied to the structural analysis of organic compounds.
