The suspect in the movie Detective Chinatown 2 committed crimes by repeatedly using the mysterious anesthetic—sevoflurane. I have unlocked the mysteries of this mysterious drug here after research.

Fig. 1 Structure of Sevoflurane
Structure of sevoflurane is as shown in Fig. 1, which is so named because there are seven fluorine atoms in the molecule thereof. Sevoflurane is an efficient general inhalational anesthetic which the criminal in the said movie used repeatedly to successfully commit crimes, showing its good anesthetic effect.
