These unprecedented synthetic cannabinoids often feature alphanumeric code names intended to mimic the style of chemical nomenclature used by academic laboratories and pharmaceutical companies, and there is generally little, if any, information available regarding their pharmacology and toxicology at the time of first discovery.
Because synthetic cannabinoid molecular structures differ from THC and other illegal cannabinoids, synthetic cannabinoids were not technically illegal. Since the discovery of the use of synthetic cannabinoids for recreational use in 2008, some synthetic cannabinoids have been made illegal , but new analogs are continually synthesized to avoid ...
Cannabinoids (/ k ə ˈ n æ b ə n ɔɪ d z ˌ ˈ k æ n ə b ə n ɔɪ d z /) are compounds found in the cannabis plant or synthetic compounds that can interact with the endocannabinoid system. [1] [2] The most notable cannabinoid is the phytocannabinoid tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) (Delta-9-THC), the primary intoxicating compound in cannabis.
AMB-FUBINACA (also known as FUB-AMB and MMB-FUBINACA [3]) is an indazole-based synthetic cannabinoid that is a potent agonist for the cannabinoid receptors, with K i values of 10.04 nM at CB 1 and 0.786 nM at CB 2 and EC 50 values of 0.5433 nM at CB 1 and 0.1278 nM at CB 2, [4] and has been sold online as a designer drug.

HU-210 is a synthetic cannabinoid that was first synthesized in 1988 from (1R,5S)-myrtenol [2] by a group led by Raphael Mechoulam at the Hebrew University. [3] [4] [5] HU-210 is 100 to 800 times more potent than natural THC from cannabis and has an extended duration of action. [6]
ADB-PINACA is a cannabinoid designer drug that is an ingredient in some synthetic cannabis products. It is a potent agonist of the CB 1 receptor and CB 2 receptor with EC 50 values of 0.52 nM and 0.88 nM respectively. [1] [2] Like MDMB-FUBINACA, this compound incorporates the unnatural amino acid tert-leucine.
4F-MDMB-BINACA (also known as MDMB-4F-BINACA, [2] 4F-MDMB-BUTINACA) is an indazole-based synthetic cannabinoid from the indazole-3-carboxamide family. [3] It should not be confused with the amantadine analogue 4F-ABINACA. It has been used as an active ingredient in synthetic cannabis products and sold as a designer drug since late 2018.
