Hexahydrocannabivarin (HHCV, HHC-V) is a semi-synthetic cannabinoid derivative, the hydrogenated derivative of tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV). It was first synthesised by Roger Adams in 1942 and produces only weak cannabinoid-like effects in animals. [1] More recently it has been sold as an ingredient in grey-market cannabinoid products. It has been investigated for potential antineoplastic activity in vitro. [2] [3]
