FUBIMINA (also known as BIM-2201, BZ-2201 and FTHJ) is a synthetic cannabinoid that is the benzimidazole analog of AM-2201[1] and has been used as an active ingredient in synthetic cannabis products.[2] It was first identified in Japan in 2013, alongside MEPIRAPIM.[3]

FUBIMINA acts as a reasonably potent agonist for the CB2 receptor (Ki = 23.45 nM), with 12x selectivity over CB1 (Ki = 296.1 nM), and does not fully substitute for Δ9-THC in rat discrimination studies.[4]

Related benzimidazole derivatives have been reported to be highly selective agonists for the CB2 receptor.[5]
