H2CBD (diHydroCBD, partially hydrogenated CBD) are cannabinoids that were first synthesized by Alexander R. Todd in 1940 by catalytic hydrogenation of cannabidiol.
The term "H2CBD" can refer to two different chemical compounds that differ by the site of hydrogenation, either saturated on the cyclohexenyl ring (i.e. 1,2-dihydrocannabidiol using the older terpenoid numbering scheme) or saturated on the isopropenyl side group, which is known as 8,9-dihydrocannabidiol.
H2CBD, H4-CBD, and 8,9-dihydrocannabidiol have all been referred to as "hydrogenated CBD" which may cause confusion.
Pharmacology
In 2006, it was discovered that 8,9-dihydrocannabidiol binds very weakly to the CB1 receptor with a binding affinity higher than 1 μM, but has potential anti-inflammatory effects independent of its cannabinoid receptor action.
