JWH 081 N-(5-hydroxypentyl) metabolite-d5

JWH 081 N-(5-hydroxypentyl) metabolite-d₅ contains five deuterium atoms at the 2, 4, 5, 6, and 7 positions. It is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of JWH 081 N-(5-hydroxypentyl) metabolite by GC- or LC-mass spectrometry. Cannabimimetic indoles, including certain "JWH" compounds, have been identified in herbal blends.¹ Hydroxylated and glucuronidated metabolites of two closely-related compounds, JWH 015 and JWH 018 , have been identified from in vitro liver microsomal metabolism and from urine, respectively.^2,3,4 JWH 081 is a cannabimimetic indole that is structurally- and functionally-related to JWH 015 and JWH 018. JWH 081 N-(5-hydroxypentyl) metabolite is expected to be a metabolite of JWH 081 that would be detectable both in serum and in urine.
