JWH-047 is a selective cannabinoid ligand that binds to both CB₁ and CB₂. It has a bindining affinity of K_i = 0.9 nM for the CB₂ subtype, and more than 65 times selectivity over the CB₁.^[1]

In the United States, all CB₁ receptor agonists of the 3-(1-naphthoyl)indole class such as JWH-047 are Schedule I Controlled Substances.
