List of CP cannabinoids

Many synthetic cannabinoids were designed by Pfizer in the 1970s and 1980s, and feature an alphanumeric code beginning with the prefix "CP" (after Charles Pfizer).^[1] Recently, several members of this class of cannabinoids have been discovered in recreational drug products.^[2]^[3]^[4]
