Synthetic cannabinoids JWH-018, JWH-073 and AM2201 were metabolised by the fungus Cunninghamella elegans. In this article, data on individual metabolites of their retention times, mass accuracies, major product ions and structures indicated by product ions are presented. The data in this article is related to “Biotransformation of synthetic cannabinoids JWH-018, JWH-073 and AM2201 by Cunninghamella elegans” [1].

1Data
Table 1, Table 3, Table 5 list all the metabolites with biotransformation, retention time, observed accurate mass, formula and major product ions of JWH-018, JWH-073 and AM2201, respectively. Product ions representative of structures for JWH-018, JWH-073 and AM2201 metabolites are presented in Table 4, Table 6, respectively. Overlaid extracted ion chromatograms of all the metabolites of JWH-018, JWH-073 and AM2201 are shown in Fig. 2 of Ref. [1] with annotated metabolite identification (ID) names (Table 1, Table 2, Table 3, Table 4, Table 5, Table 6).
2Experimental design, materials and methods
2.1Chemicals
JWH-018 and JWH-073 were synthesized in-house following previously reported methods and characterized by mass spectrometry (MS) and 1D, 2D nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy [3], [4]. AM2201 (purity 99.4%) was obtained from the National Measurement Institute (North Ryde, NSW, Australia). Reference standards JWH-018 N-(4-hydroxypentyl), JWH-018 N-(5-hydroxypentyl), JWH-018 N-pentanoic acid, JWH-073 N-(3-hydroxybutyl), JWH-073 N-(4-hydroxybutyl) and JWH-073 N-butanoic acid were obtained from PM separations (Capalaba, QLD, Australia). Reagent grade dichloromethane, methanol, KH2PO4, NaCl and LC grade acetonitrile and methanol were obtained from Chemsupply (Gilman, SA, Australia). Potato dextrose agar, glucose, peptone, and yeast extract were purchased from Oxoid Australia (Adelaide, SA, Australia).
2.2Microbial culture and biotransformation conditions
Cultures of C. elegans ATCC 10028b (Cryosite Ltd, South Granville, NSW, Australia) were propagated on potato dextrose agar plates at 27 °C for 5 days. The mycelia from five plates were then transferred to 20 mL of sterile physiological saline solution and homogenized for 5 min. Approximately 3 mL aliquots of the homogenate were used to inoculate 250 mL Erlenmeyer flasks containing 100 ml of growth media. The cultures were incubated for 48 h at 26 °C on an Infors HT Multitron rotary shaker (in vitro Technologies, Noble Park North, VIC, Australia) operating at 180 rpm. After 48 h, 10 mg of JWH-018, JWH-073 or AM2201 dissolved in 0.5 mL of methanol was added to the culture and incubated for further 72 h [5]. Control experiments consisted of cultures without cannabinoids and flasks containing only media and cannabinoid [6], [7].
