Notes: 2-Arachidonoyl glycerol (2-AG) has been isolated from porcine brain, and has been characterized as the natural endocannabinoid ligand for the CB1 receptor.{4614,5306} Replacement of the sn-2 oxygen in the glycerol moiety of 2-AG with a nitrogen atom gives arachidonoyl serinol.{3301} Arachidonoyl serinol is much more stable than 2-AG. However, it is at least a log less potent as a CB1 receptor agonist than 2-AG.{5306}
