Cannabinoid-like Effects Of Five Novel Carboxamide Synthetic Cannabinoids

Similarly, precursor ion identified at m/z 380 (B19/B21, B23/B25) was 16 Da higher than the 4F-MDMB-BINACA, indicating monohydroxylation at the butyl side chain (B19/B21) and indazole (B23/B25) moieties with product ions m/z 145 and 161, respectively. Metabolites identified at m/z 366 (B8, B9, B13), which was 16 Da higher than the 4F-MDMB-BINACA ester hydrolysis metabolite (B22), confirmed monohydroxylation upon ester hydrolysis. Death involving these drugs have been reported [5,6,7,8,9], and this raises public health and social concerns. Due to their similar physiological effects to the principal psychoactive component of cannabis, Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), SCBs are gaining popularity and are often abused as recreational drugs. The fact that similar 4F-MDMB-BINACA and ethanol concentrations were detected in the postmortem blood samples of both victims suggests that both substances played a role in the fatal outcom


Tremors were observed in mice 30 minutes following 1 mg/kg AMB-FUBINACA in the present study. Pretreatment times and dose ranges for the drug discrimination assay were selected based on the time of peak depression in the locomotor activity assay in mice. Average potency of the discriminative stimulus effects of early compounds was 0.81±0.17 mg/kg (Gatch et al., 2014), whereas the potency of a recent set was 0.09±0.03 mg/kg (Gatch et al., 2018), and the potency of the current set is 0.05±0.01 mg/kg. Short-onset, short-acting compounds have a greater abuse liability, and long-acting compounds pose problems of long-acting adverse effects and interactions with other drugs. The duration of action of the synthetic cannabinoids tested using the 8-h protocol have varied widely, with some producing a duration of action no longer than 1 h, others producing a duration of action between 1–2 h, and others lasting more than 2 h. There seems to be a trend of newer synthetic cannabinoids being more potent than earlier compound


A 30-min period, beginning when maximal depression of locomotor activity first appeared as a function of dose, was used for analysis of dose-response data and calculation of ED50 values. During test sessions, both levers were active, such that ten consecutive responses on either lever led to JWH-210 powder reinforcement. The substitution tests occurred only if the rats had achieved 85% injection-appropriate responding on the two prior training sessions.
The locomotor activity assay was used to identify approximate time courses and dose ranges of psychoactive effects, which is useful for identifying parameters for drug discrimination experiments and are also predictive of the time course of the psychoactive effects in human users. The purpose of the present study was to assess the abuse liability of 5F-MDMB-PINACA, MDMB-CHIMICA, MDMB-FUBINACA, ADB-FUBINACA, and AMB-FUBINACA. Since there is currently no robust measure of the reinforcing/rewarding effects of cannabinoids, drug discrimination is currently the best model for assessing abuse liability of cannabinoids. The findings produce an apparent paradox, since CPP and self-administration predict with high reliability the likelihood that a compound will be abused by humans, and cannabinoids are well-known to produce active drug-seeking in human

Each training session lasted a maximum of 10 min, and the rats could earn up to 20 food pellets. Thirty minutes prior to the training sessions, rats received an injection of either vehicle or Δ9-THC and were subsequently placed in the behavior-testing chambers, where food (45-mg food pellets; Bio-Serve, Frenchtown, NJ) was available as a reinforcer for every ten responses (FR10) on a designated injection appropriate lever. A houselight was centered over the hopper close to the ceiling and was illuminated only when the levers were active. Each dose range included doses that were without effect to those producing at least 50% depression compared to vehicle control. Twenty-four male Sprague-Dawley rats were obtained from Envigo (Houston, TX). Male ND4 Swiss–Webster mice were obtained from Envigo (Houston, TX) at approximately 8 weeks of age and maintained in the University of North Texas Health Science Center (UNTHSC) animal facility for two weeks prior to testin
