Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is a cannabinoid found in cannabis. [9] It is the principal psychoactive constituent of cannabis and one of at least 113 total cannabinoids identified on the plant. 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 ...
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.
Cannabinoids (/ k ə ˈ n æ b ə n ɔɪ d z ˌ ˈ k æ n ə b ə n ɔɪ d z /) are compounds found in the cannabis plant or synthetic compounds that can interact with the endocannabinoid system. [1] [2] The most notable cannabinoid is the phytocannabinoid tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) (Delta-9-THC), the primary intoxicating compound in cannabis.
Δ-8-Tetrahydrocannabinol, which can be converted to THC by addition of HCl followed by dehydrochlorination. [31] [26] [32] Treatment of the purified Δ8 -THC under Lucas' reagent gives the chloro compound. Following treatment with potassium tert-amylate, the desired (-)-6a,10 a-trans-Δ9 -tetrahydrocannabinol is yeilded.
Δ 9-Tetrahydrocannabutol (tetrahydrocannabinol-C4, THC-C4, Δ 9-THCB, (C4)-Δ 9-THC, butyl-THC) is a phytocannabinoid found in cannabis that is a homologue of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the main active component of Cannabis. [1] Structurally, they are only different by the pentyl side chain being replaced by a butyl side chain.
THC-O-acetate (THC acetate ester, O-acetyl-THC, THC-O, AcO-THC) is the acetate ester of THC.The term THC-O-acetate and its variations are commonly used for two types of the substance, dependent on which cannabinoid it is synthesized from.
Δ-11-Tetrahydrocannabinol (Delta-11-THC, Δ 11-THC, Δ 9(11)-THC, exo-Tetrahydrocannabinol) is a rare isomer of tetrahydrocannabinol, developed in the 1970s. It can be synthesised from Δ 8 -THC by several different routes, [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] though only the (6aR, 10aR) enantiomer is known.
Δ-3-Tetrahydrocannabinol (often abbreviated as delta-3-THC or Δ 3-THC) is a synthetic isomer of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) developed during the original research in the 1940s to develop synthetic routes to the natural products Δ 8-THC and Δ 9-THC found in the cannabis. [1]
