JWH-365 ((5-(2-Ethylphenyl)-1-pentyl-1H-pyrrol-3-yl)(naphthalen-1-yl)methanone) is a synthetic cannabinoid from the naphthoylpyrrole family which acts as an agonist of the CB1 (Ki = 17 ± 1nM) and CB2 (Ki = 3.4 ± 0.2nM) receptors, with a strong (~5x) selectivity for the CB2 receptor over the CB1 receptor. JWH-365 was first synthesized in 2006 by John W. Huffman and colleagues to examine the nature of ligand binding to the CB1 receptor.{{cite journal | vauthors = Huffman JW, Padgett LW, Isherwood ML, Wiley JL, Martin BR | title = 1-Alkyl-2-aryl-4-(1-naphthoyl)pyrroles: new high affinity ligands for the cannabinoid CB1 and CB2 receptors | journal = Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters | volume = 16 | issue = 20 | pages = 5432–5 | date = October 2006 | pmid = 16889960 | doi = 10.1016/j.bmcl.2006.07.051 }}

Legality

In the United States JWH-365 is not federally scheduled, although some states have passed legislation banning the sale, possession, and manufacture of JWH-365.{{UnitedStatesCode2|21|812|Schedules of controlled substances}}{{cite web |title=The 2020 Florida Statutes |url=http://www.leg.state.fl.us/Statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&URL=0800-0899/0893/Sections/0893.03.html |website=www.leg.state.fl.us |access-date=20 August 2021}}{{cite web |title=Arizona Revised Statutes Title 13.

In Canada, JWH-365 and other naphthoylpyrrole-based cannabinoids are Schedule II controlled substances under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act.

In the United Kingdom, JWH-365 and other naphthoylpyrrole-based cannabinoids are considered Class B drugs under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971.
