MAM-2201 (4'-methyl-AM-2201, 5"-fluoro-JWH-122) is a drug that presumably acts as a potent

synthetic cannabis smoking blends.[4][5][6] Like RCS-4 and AB-001, MAM-2201 thus appears to be a novel compound invented by "research chemical" suppliers specifically for grey-market recreational use. Structurally, MAM-2201 is a hybrid of two known cannabinoid compounds JWH-122 and AM-2201
, both of which had previously been used as active ingredients in synthetic cannabis blends before being banned in many countries.

A study of MAM-2201 in rats showed that it causes neurofunctional disruptions.[7] A later study demonstrated that MAM-2201 bound to and activated human CB1 and CB2 cannabinoid receptors and substituted for THC in THC drug discrimination in mice.[8]

Legal status

In the United States, all CB1 receptor agonists of the 3-(1-naphthoyl)indole class such as MAM-2201 are

Schedule I Controlled Substances.[9]

MAM-2201 has been banned by being added to the temporary class drug schedule in New Zealand, effective from 13 July 2012.[10]

As of October 2015 MAM-2201 is a controlled substance in China.[11]
