Some 9-hydroxycannabinoid-like compounds. Synthesis and evaluation of analgesic and behavioral properties.
A series of 9-hydroxylated cannabinoid-like compounds was prepared and tested for analgesic properties in mice and behavioral properties in dogs. Although the prototype compound, 9-nor-9-hydroxyhexahydrocannabinol, has potent antinociceptive activity in laboratory animals, the new analogues were relatively inactive. All of the compounds produced an alteration of behavior in unanesthetized dogs. Two of the compounds produced cannabinoid-like effects and the other two produced general CNS depression.
