AM-938 (part of the

classical and nonclassical cannabinoid families,[1] with the 6-hydroxyalkyl chain rigidified with a triple bond. This gives AM-938 a greater degree of selectivity, so while it is still a potent agonist at both CB1 and CB2, it is reasonably selective for CB2, with a Ki of 0.3 nM at CB2 and 1.2 nM at CB1, a selectivity of around four-fold.[2][3]
