History[edit | edit source]

Lufuradom was first synthesized in 1974 by a team at Hoffmann-La Roche. It was developed as a part of a research program to find a new type of analgesic. The structure of Lufuradom is similar to other benzodiazepines, but it has a furan ring instead of a benzene ring, which makes it a furanodiazepine.
