HU-210- a synthetic cannabinoid & Cannabis studies completed

Overview

HU-210 is a synthetic cannabinoid that was first synthesized in 1988 from (1R,5S)-myrteno by a group led by Professor Raphael Mechoulam at the Hebrew University.

HU-210 is 100 to 800 times more potent than natural THC from cannabis and has an extended duration of action. HU-210 is the (-)-1,1-dimethylheptyl analog of 11-hydroxy- delta 8- tetrahydrocannabinol; in some references it is called 1,1-dimethylheptyl- 11-hydroxytetrahydrocannabinol.

The abbreviation "HU" stands for Hebrew University.
