7-hydroxycannabidiol 7-hydroxycannabidiol 7-hydroxycannabidiol (7-oh-cbd) is an active metabolite of cannabidiol, generated in the body from cannabidiol by the action of the enzyme cyp2c19. while methods have been developed for its synthetic production, and measurement of levels in the body following consumption of cannabidiol, its pharmacology has been relatively little studied, though it has been found to possess similar anticonvulsant effects to cannabidiol itself, as well as lowering blood triglyceride levels. like its precursor cbd, it is not known to exhibit any psychoactive effects on the body and is known to counter the psychoactive effects of thc if it is present at the same time. this mode of action in 2015 was discovered to be at least contributing in part by being a non competitive negative allosteric modulator of the cannabinoid receptor type 1. 7-hydroxycannabidiolidentifiers iupac name 2--5-pentylbenzene-1,3-diol cas number50725-17-2 ypubchem cid11301963chemspider9476939uniin38g7jb3k2chebichebi:133053chemical and physical dataformulac21h30o3molar mass330.468 g·mol−13d model (jsmol)interactive image smiles cccccc1=cc(=c(c(=c1)o)2c=c(cc2c(=c)c)co)o inchi inchi=1s/c21h30o3/c1-4-5-6-7-15-11-19(23)21(20(24)12-15)18-10-16(13-22)8-9-17(18)14(2)3/h10-12,17-18,22-24h,2,4-9,13h2,1,3h3/t17-,18+/m0/s1key:zeluxpwdpvxuei-zwkotpchsa-n
