AM-2201 (1-(5-fluoropentyl)-3-(1-naphthoyl)indole) is a

full agonist for the cannabinoid receptor.[3] It is part of the AM series of cannabinoids discovered by Alexandros Makriyannis at Northeastern University
.

Hazards

Convulsions have been reported[4] including at doses as low as 10 mg.[5]

Pharmacology

AM-2201 is a

CB2.[6] The 4-methyl functional analog MAM-2201 probably has similar affinities.[original research?] AM-2201 has an EC50 of 38 nM for human CB1 receptors, and 58 nM for human CB2 receptors.[7] AM-2201 produces bradycardia and hypothermia in rats at doses of 0.3–3 mg/kg, comparable to the potency of JWH-018 in rats, suggesting potent cannabinoid-like activity.[7]

Pharmacokinetics

See also: JWH-018 § Pharmacokinetics

AM-2201

dealkylation produces fluoropentane instead of pentane (or plain alkanes in general).[citation needed
]

Detection

A forensic standard of AM-2201 is available, and the compound has been posted on the Forendex website of potential drugs of abuse.[8]

Legal status

In the United States, AM-2201 is a

Schedule I controlled substance.[9]
