Krokodil was produced mimicking street synthesis followed by addicts. Desomorphine was synthesized using the hydriodic acid/red phosphorous reduction.
The traditional synthesis of desomorphine starts from α-chlorocodide, which is itself obtained by treating codeine with thionyl chloride.

Abstract This work describes a convenient and improved process for the synthesis of desomorphine from codeine. The proposed method affords the highly pure opiate without the aid of chromatographic purification, and provides a simple route for the synthesis of [2H3] deuterium-labeled desomorphine.

Thanks a bunch!!!!!!!!!!!!
Synthesis
Anyway, gave it 4 stars for the concept, plot and grammar.
