ADBICA (also known as ADB-PICA) is a designer drug identified in synthetic cannabis blends in Japan in 2013.^[1] ADBICA had not previously been reported in the scientific literature prior to its sale as a component of synthetic cannabis blends. ADBICA features a carboxamide group at the 3-indole position, like SDB-001 and STS-135. The stereochemistry of the tert-butyl side-chain in the illicitly sold product is unresolved, though in a large series of indazole derivatives structurally similar to ADBICA that are disclosed in Pfizer patent WO 2009/106980, activity resides exclusively in the (S) enantiomers.^[2] ADBICA is a potent agonist of the CB₁ receptor and CB₂ receptor with a EC₅₀ value of 0.69 nM and 1.8 nM respectively.^[3]

Legal Status

As of October 2015 ADBICA is a controlled substance in China.^[4]
