In plain terms
CBGP is a CBG whose side chain has seven carbons instead of five. Its presence in cannabis has not been demonstrated: only its acid form has been detected there, without confirmation. It has only been studied in the laboratory and in mice, in synthetic form.
Receptors and activity
Measured effects
Not characterised. No placebo-controlled human trial has measured the effects of CBGP, so no level is shown.
Levels computed from placebo-controlled human trials: difference from placebo on 100, at the dose and route stated. Read the method
Pharmacology
Cannabigerophorol (CBGP) is the heptyl (C7) homologue of cannabigerol: the same geranylated resorcinol, without a pyran ring, but with a seven-carbon side chain instead of five. Its existence in the plant is not established: only its presumed acid, CBGPA, has been putatively identified by UHPLC-HRMS in cannabis samples, without a reference standard (Linciano et al. 2021), and neutral CBGP has not been reported there. No affinity constant has been published. Synthetic CBGP was tested alongside other CBG homologues: in male mice made hypersensitive by cisplatin, 10 mg/kg intraperitoneally reduced mechanical hypersensitivity like the other homologues, and at 10 µM it did not significantly change the viability of seven colorectal cancer cell lines (Raup-Konsavage et al. 2022). No human, pharmacokinetic or toxicology data have been published.

History
- Source
- Origin not established. Only its presumed acid, CBGPA, has been reported in the plant, through a putative UHPLC-HRMS identification without a reference standard (Linciano et al. 2021); the presence of neutral CBGP in cannabis has not been reported.
Biosynthetic pathway
No formation pathway has been demonstrated for CBGP or for its presumed acid, CBGPA.
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 a controlled narcotic: CBGP is not named in the ANSM consolidated list (updated 26/06/2026) and, as an open-chain CBG-type molecule without a pyran ring, it does not belong to the generic class of benzo[c]chromene derivatives (ANSM decisions of 22/05/2024 and 03/06/2024). Checked on 20/10/2026.
