Carbonate derivatives of 14β-hydroxycodeine "viz., 14β-hydroxy-6-O-(methoxycarbonyl)codeine, 6-O-methoxycarbonyl-14β-(methoxycarbonyloxy)codeine, and 14β-acetoxy-6-O-methoxy-carbonylcodeine, potential substrates for ring C modification in morphinane (sic) alkaloids, were synthesized for the first time."
Oxycodone, a semi-synthetic opioid, is a highly selective full agonist of the μ-opioid receptor (MOR). [41] [42] This is the main biological target of the endogenous opioid neuropeptide β-endorphin. [19] Oxycodone has low affinity for the δ-opioid receptor (DOR) and the κ-opioid receptor (KOR), where it is an agonist similarly.
This is the list of Schedule II controlled substances in the United States as defined by the Controlled Substances Act. [1] The following findings are required, by section 202 of that Act, for substances to be placed in this schedule: The drug or other substance has a high potential for abuse.

[citation needed] Dihydrocodeine, oxymorphol, oxycodone, oxymorphone, metopon Possibly other derivatives of morphine and/or hydromorphone also are found in trace amounts in opium. [citation needed] Despite morphine being the most medically significant opioid, larger quantities of codeine are consumed medically, most of it synthesized from morphine.

Such tables are used in opioid rotation practices, and to describe an opioid by comparison to morphine, the reference opioid. Equianalgesic tables typically list drug half-lives, and sometimes equianalgesic doses of the same drug by means of administration, such as morphine: oral and intravenous.
Morphine. Synthesis of morphine-like alkaloids in chemistry describes the total synthesis of the natural morphinan class of alkaloids that includes codeine, morphine, oripavine, and thebaine and the closely related semisynthetic analogs methorphan, buprenorphine, hydromorphone, hydrocodone, isocodeine, naltrexone, nalbuphine, oxymorphone, oxycodone, and naloxone.
