“…It has been proposed that there exists a hydrophobic binding pocket that interacts with the C3 alkyl chain of classical and nonclassical cannabinoids (12)(13)(14)(15)(16), a key pharmacophoric element for the CB1 receptor (17,18). In this regard, the identification of Cys-355 6.47 , located next to Trp-356 6.48 of the highly conserved CWXP motif, as a binding contact for the C3 alkyl chain of a nonclassical cannabinoid (19) is highly informative.…”

“…However, more potent activity is needed for clinical use. It is known that modifications of the pentyl side chain of THC increase its potency [12]. In particular, extending the chain length to seven C-atoms and introducing branching close to the benzene ring leads to compounds with potencies that are 50 to 100 times greater than that of THC proper.…”

“…However, a molecule more potent than THC-11 oic acid is needed for clinical use. It has been known for some time that certain modification of the pentyl side chain of THC increases its potency (8). Therefore, a derivative of THC-11 oic acid with a dimethylheptyl side chain was prepared and tested for analgesic and antiinflammatory activity in several animal models (9).…”
