Although the chemical formula for THC (C 21 H 30 O 2) describes multiple isomers, [10] the term THC usually refers to the delta-9-THC isomer with chemical name (−)-trans-Δ 9-tetrahydrocannabinol. It is a colorless oil.
Cannabis has many different names, including more than 1,200 slang terms, and more than 2,300 names for individual strains. [1] Additionally, there are many names to describe the state of being under the influence of the substance. [2]
Δ-8-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-8-THC, [a] Δ 8-THC) is a psychoactive cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant. [1] It is an isomer of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-9-THC, Δ 9-THC), the compound commonly known as THC, with which it co-occurs in hemp; natural quantities of ∆ 8-THC found in hemp are low.

Despite the CBD and THC having the same molecular weight, multiple analytical methods are able to differentiate them. [11] "on the recovery of both THC (86.7−90.0%) and CBD (92.3−95.6%). The slightly lower recovery of THC can be explained by the fact that THC is less polar than CBD and more likely to remain in the nonpolar sunflower oil." [11]
For a substance to be considered legal hemp, it can’t contain more than 0.3% of Delta 9 THC by dry weight. That limit, said Phil Dixon, Jr., a cannabis-focused lawyer and the director of UNC ...
Pot, a common slang name for cannabis, on a sign at a 2012 cannabis rights demonstration in New York City. More than 1,200 slang names have been identified for the dried leaves and flowers harvested from the cannabis plant for drug use. [1] This list is not exhaustive; it includes well-attested expressions.
Δ-10-Tetrahydrocannabinol (Delta-10-THC, Δ 10-THC, alternatively numbered as Δ 2-THC) is a positional isomer of tetrahydrocannabinol, discovered in the 1980s.Two epimers have been reported in the literature, with the 9-methyl group in either the (R) or (S) conformation; of these, the (R) epimer appears to be the more active isomer as well as the double bond in the 10th position instead of ...
