JWH-081, a synthetic cannabinoid, was first synthesized by John W. Huffman in 2006 at Clemson University. It was part of a series of compounds developed for research into cannabinoid receptors. Initially, it was used in laboratory settings to study the endocannabinoid system, but it soon appeared in the illicit drug market. By 2009, JWH-081 had become popular as a component of synthetic cannabis products, often sold as 'herbal incense.' The compound's legal status became a concern as many countries began to regulate synthetic cannabinoids due to their health risks and high potential for abuse. JWH-081 is known for its potent psychoactive effects, contributing to its widespread use and subsequent legal restrictions.
