JWH-251 (1-pentyl-3-(2-methylphenylacetyl)indole) is asynthetic cannabinoid from thephenylacetylindole family, which acts as acannabinoid agonist with about five times selectivity forCB1 with aKi of 29 nM and 146 nM atCB2. Similar to the related 2'-methoxy compoundJWH-250, the 2'-chloro compoundJWH-203, and the 2'-bromo compoundJWH-249, JWH-251 has aphenylacetyl group in place of thenaphthoyl ring used in mostaminoalkylindole cannabinoid compounds.[3][4]
In the United States, all CB1 receptor agonists of the 3-phenylacetylindole class such as JWH-251 areSchedule I Controlled Substances.[5]
