Abstract:
:Synthetic cannabinoids are a group of compounds that are structurally diverse and are commonly found in various herbal incense and potpourri blends, which are sold in convenience stores, smoke shops and over the Internet. During the past few years, multiple state and federal legislations have been enacted controlling various subsets of these compounds that have been detected in compound categories generally considered the first and second product generations. As shown in previous studies, as compounds become controlled, new compounds emerge and become prevalent. We report on the emergence and prevalence of five different compounds (A796,260, MAM-2201, UR-144, URB597 and XLR-11) in the state of Indiana through their qualitative detection in solid-dosage herbal products via rapid solvent extraction and ultra-performance liquid chromatography with time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC/ToF). We demonstrate the use of UPLC/ToF to be a suitable tool in the identification of these substances in a crime laboratory or forensic laboratory setting, which ultimately enables a laboratory to design assays for the detection of specific analytes in biological specimens in regard to regional trends and prevalence.
