Fentanyl = China White

 Diacetyl Morphine = Black Tar

 Diacetyl Morphine = More rapid onset of addiction? Due to the fact that it does not need to be converted by the body?

 Morphine Sulfate < Diacetyl Morphine?

 Anyone?.....Anyone?.......Anyone?

Diacetylmorphine is simply the chemical name for heroin-- it's sometimes called diamorphine for that reason, when it is sold on prescription in the UK.

All the differences between the various stree heroins have to do with impurities.

Though of course, some of the street heroins are actually fentanyl or other synthetics-- but if it comes from the good old poppy and is not a synthetic, it's diamorphine plus whatever cuts and impurities.

Any heroin could be anything so it doesn't always follow that china white is a synthetic while black tar isn't etc.-- given the vagaries of illicit supplies.

Fentanyl and heroin are 2 structurally different molecules. Heroin is metabolized into morphine and 6-monoacetylmorphine. Fentanyl is related to the phenylpiperidine class of opioids (meperidine or Demerol is the prototype). Both are lipid-soluble (cross BBB rapidly) and act primarily at mu receptors (analgesia, respiratory depression, constipation). Fentanyl is 100 times as potent as morphine, while heroin is about twice as potent as morphine. Fentanyl has a much shorter duration of action than heroin, but has a longer plasma half-life. Lipid solubility, pharmacokinetics (what the body does to the drug), potency, and affinity for opioid receptors are probably all involved in how easy it is to become physically addicted. This is why Xanax is so addictive, while Ativan is much less so.
