Salvinorin

Salvinorins are a group of natural chemical compounds and their structural analogs.

Originally isolated from S. divinorum, salvinorins are also detected in smaller amounts in: For comparison, the amount of salvinorin A in S. divinorum ranges from 0.89 to 3.70 mg/g.

[2] In search for useful biological activity, several synthetic and semi-synthetic analogs have been prepared for study.

[8] Many other terpenoids have been isolated from Salvia divinorum, including classes named divinatorins and salvinicins.

None of these compounds have shown significant (sub-micromolar) affinity at the kappa-opioid receptor, and there is no evidence that they contribute to the plant's psychoactivity.
