Abstract: | A new synthetic cannabinoid, 1-(tetrahydropyran-4-ylmethyl)-1H-indol-3-yl]-(2,2,3,3-tetramethylcyclopropyl)methanone, was identified in several resinous samples seized by law enforcement officers in Poland. Its identification was based on liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization–quadrupole time-of-flight–mass spectrometry, gas chromatography–electron ionization–mass spectrometry, one-dimensional and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. The reported substance was first developed by Abbott Laboratories and patented under the name “A-834,735”. It is a potent agonist of both CB1 and CB2 receptors. Although A-834,735 shows moderate selectivity to CB2 receptor, it exhibits a CB1 affinity similar to that of ?9-tetrahydrocannabinol. The drug has recently become available in online shops. To our knowledge, this is the first report to disclose a synthetic cannabinoid containing a (tetrahydropyran-4-yl)methyl structure in products seized from the drug market. |
