Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Synthetic cannabinoids (SC) have structural/positional isomers which may not all be regulated, thus isomeric differentiation becomes crucial as new designer drugs continuously emerge with minor modifications. Positional isomer differentiation of the SCs JWH-081, JWH-122, JWH-210, and their isomers was attained by gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS). Product ions with the same m/z are suspected to have different properties such as ion configuration and internal energy depending on the position of the functional group, producing characteristic spectra allowing for isomeric differentiation. Furthermore, differentiation of the hydroxyindole metabolite isomers of JWH-018 was also attained. Results were applied as a hydroxyl-position determining method for the metabolites of JWH-018 by GC-MS/MS in MRM mode to JWH-018 administered mice. Hydroxylation at the 6-position was found to be the likely dominant pathway for JWH-018 metabolism to produce the hydroxyindole metabolites.
