Four stereoisomers of 8-OH-HHC arise from C8-hydroxylation of hexahydrocannabinol. There are four possible 8-OH-HHC metabolites arising from naturally derived HHCs: cis-and trans-8-OH-9α-HHC & cis-and trans-8-OH-9β-HHC. All four have been prepared synthetically to probe stereochemical effects on cannabinoid biological activity. [5]
9-Hydroxyhexahydrocannabinol (9-OH-HHC) is a semi-synthetic derivative of tetrahydrocannabinol. It is formed as an impurity in the synthesis of Delta-8-THC, [1] and retains activity in animal studies though with only around 1/10 the potency of Δ 9-THC, with the 9α- and 9β- enantiomers having around the same potency. [2]
The 11-OH-9β-HHC isomer is the structurally related methylene homologue of 11-Nor-9β-hydroxyhexahydrocannabinol also known as 9-Nor-9β-hydroxyhexahydrocannabinol. [8] [9] HU-243 is a synthetic analog of 11-OH-9β-HHC in which the natural n-pentyl side chain is replaced with a geminal-dimethylheptyl substitution.
The same study found Delta-9-THC to have a binding affinity of 15nM ± 4.4nM at CB1 and 9.1nM ± 3.6nM at CB2. 9R-HHC has a lower selectivity for CB2 (1.2x) compared to D9-THC (1.6x). 9R-HHC has an EC50 of 3.4nM ± 1.5nM at CB1 and 6.2nM ± 2.1nM at CB2 while 9S-HHC has an EC50 of 57nM ± 19nM at CB1 and 55nM ± 10nM at CB2. The same study ...
HHC-P is a partial agonist of the CB1 receptors with an EC50 of 44.4nM for 9R-HHCP and 134nM for 9S-HHCP. Compared to Hexahydrocannabinol (HHC) with an EC50 of 101nM for 9R-HHC and 1,190nM for 9S-HHC [ 5 ] In 2021, HHC-P was positively identified in multiple retail electronic vaping products in the United States.
9-Nor-9β-hydroxyhexahydrocannabinol (9-nor-9beta-HHC; sometimes incorrectly confused with 11-nor-9β-hydroxyhexahydrocannabinol [1]) is a cannabinoid first discovered from early modifications to the structure of THC, in a search for the simplest compound that could still fulfill the binding requirements to produce cannabis-like activity. [2] [3]
8,11-Dihydroxytetrahydrocannabinol (8β,11-diOH-Δ 9-THC) is an active metabolite of THC, the main active component of cannabis.The 8β enantiomer retains psychoactive effects in animal studies with only slightly lower potency than THC, while the 8α enantiomer is much weaker.
Δ-8-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-8-THC, [a] Δ 8-THC) is a psychoactive cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant. [1] It is an isomer of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-9-THC, Δ 9-THC), the compound commonly known as THC, with which it co-occurs in hemp; natural quantities of ∆ 8-THC found in hemp are low.
