THC morpholinylbutyrate

THC Morpholinylbutyrate is a synthetic analogue of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the active component of cannabis. It is specifically a morpholinylbutyrate ester of THC, which differentiates it from the natural compound.

Chemistry

THC Morpholinylbutyrate, also known as THC-M, is a synthetic derivative of THC, where a morpholinylbutyrate group is added to the THC molecule. This modification is believed to enhance the pharmacological properties of THC, although the exact mechanism is not fully understood.

Pharmacology

The pharmacological properties of THC Morpholinylbutyrate are similar to those of THC. It acts as a partial agonist at the CB1 receptor and CB2 receptor, the two main cannabinoid receptors in the body. However, due to its synthetic nature and the addition of the morpholinylbutyrate group, it may have different pharmacokinetics and potentially enhanced potency or efficacy compared to THC.

Medical Use

The potential medical uses of THC Morpholinylbutyrate are similar to those of THC and other cannabinoids. These may include pain relief, anti-nausea, appetite stimulation, and potentially others. However, as a synthetic cannabinoid, it may also have unique properties or uses that are not shared by natural cannabinoids.

Legal Status

The legal status of THC Morpholinylbutyrate varies by country and region. In some places, it may be classified as a controlled substance due to its similarity to THC. In others, it may be legal for medical or research use.
