Phytocannabinoids (and synthetic analogs thereof) are gaining significant attention as promising leads in modern medicine. Considering this, new directions for the design of phytocannabinoid-inspired molecules is of immediate interest. In this regard, we have hypothesized that axially-chiral-cannabinols (ax-CBNs), unnatural and unknown isomers of cannabinol (CBN) may be valuable scaffolds for cannabinoid-inspired drug discovery. There are two main factors directing our interest to these scaffolds: (a) ax-CBNs would have ground-state three-dimensionality; ligand-receptor interactions can be more significant with complimentary 3D-topology, and (b) ax-CBNs at their core structure are biaryl molecules, generally attractive platforms for pharmaceutical development due to their ease of functionalization and stability. Herein we report a synthesis of ax-CBNs, examine physical properties experimentally and computationally, and perform a comparative analysis of ax-CBN and THC in mice behavioral studies.

轴向手性大麻酚:大麻素启发的药物发现的新平台。



植物大麻素(及其合成类似物)作为现代医学的有前途的先导物质而受到广泛关注。考虑到这一点,植物大麻素分子设计的新方向立即引起人们的兴趣。在这方面,我们假设轴向手性大麻酚(ax-CBN)、大麻酚的非天然和未知异构体(CBN)可能是大麻素启发的药物发现的有价值的支架。有两个主要因素引起了我们对这些支架的兴趣:(a) ax-CBN 具有基态三维性;配体-受体相互作用在互补的 3D 拓扑中可能更加重要,并且 (b) ax-CBN 的核心结构是联芳基分子,由于其易于功能化和稳定性,通常是药物开发的有吸引力的平台。在此,我们报告了 ax-CBN 的合成,通过实验和计算检查物理性质,并在小鼠行为研究中对 ax-CBN 和 THC 进行比较分析。
