JWH-148 is a synthetic cannabimimetic that was discovered byJohn W. Huffman. It is the indole 2-methyl analog ofJWH-120. It is a moderately selective ligand for theCB₂ receptor, with a binding affinity ofK_i = 14.0 ± 1.0 nM at this subtype, and more than eight times selectivity over the CB₁ subtype.^[1]

In the United States, all CB₁ receptor agonists of the 3-(1-naphthoyl)indole class such as JWH-148 areSchedule I Controlled Substances.^[2]
