Chemistry:VDM-11

From HandWiki

VDM-11 is a potent cannabinoid reuptake inhibitor. This is achieved by inhibiting the anandamide membrane transporter (AMT) which is responsible for reuptake of anandamide.[1]

It is light-sensitive and must be stored within an inert gas such as argon, in a dark place and at an ideal temperature of -20 °C or lower.[2] This tan-colored substance is rarely found outside of research laboratories.

VDM-11 is a weak CB1 agonist with a binding affinity of Ki > 5–10 μM.[3][4]
