Heroin vs. Morphine vs. Oxycontin

I have heard that Heroin and oxycontin are chemically the same as morphine except that they have something added on that allows the drug to pass into the brain quicker. For example heroin is diacetylmorphine and it gets into the brain 3 times faster than morphine (I think...). Does anyone know the chemical name for oxycontin and how fast it can pass into the brain compared to morphine? Is it stronger than Heroin?
