Pharmacology
Cannabiglendol (8-hydroxy-isohexahydrocannabivarin, OH-iso-HHCV-C3) is a « miscellaneous » cannabinoid according to Radwan et al. (2021): a bridged 2,6-methano-2H-1-benzoxocine skeleton of the iso-THC type, carrying a tertiary alcohol and a propyl (C3) side chain. It was isolated and characterised in 1981 from an Indian variety of Cannabis sativa (Turner, Mole, Hanuš and ElSohly, Journal of Natural Products); no other experimental study was found. Its origin in the plant is not established. No CB1 or CB2 affinity and no pharmacokinetic, metabolism or toxicology data have been published, and no human data exist.

History
- Source
- Cannabis sativa L.: isolated from an Indian variety (Turner et al. 1981). Origin not established: no source consulted says whether the plant produces it or whether it forms after harvest.
Biosynthetic pathway
No formation pathway has been described and no enzyme is associated with it. Its propyl (C3) side chain links it structurally to the varin series, but this relationship has not been studied.
Legal framework
- European Union
Not listed by name in the schedules of the 1961 and 1971 United Nations conventions, according to annexes I to III of the ANSM consolidated list (26/06/2026). Checked on 20/10/2026.
- France
Not classified as a narcotic: cannabiglendol is not named in the ANSM consolidated list (updated 26/06/2026), and its bridged 2,6-methano-2H-1-benzoxocine skeleton is not the benzo[c]chromene nucleus of the generic class created by the ANSM decisions of 22/05/2024 and 03/06/2024. Nor is it a tetrahydrocannabinol within the entry « Tetrahydrocannabinols, their esters, ethers, salts ». Checked on 20/10/2026.
