Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC), also known as Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol, is the primary psychoactive compound found in the cannabis plant. It is a complex organic molecule belonging to the class of compounds known as cannabinoids. Δ9-THC is responsible for the characteristic "high" associated with marijuana use, as it interacts with the endocannabinoid system in the human body, particularly binding to the CB1 receptor, which is predominantly found in the brain. This interaction modulates neurotransmitter release, leading to various psychological and physiological effects. The Δ9-THC molecule is derived from the acidic precursor, tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA), which is converted to Δ9-THC through a process called decarboxylation, typically occurring when the cannabis plant is heated. The compound's structure and properties have been extensively studied, and it is a subject of ongoing research due to its potential therapeutic applications and the legal and social implications of its use.

Check Digit Verification of cas no

The CAS Registry Mumber 16964-52-6 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 1,6,9,6 and 4 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 5 and 2 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 16964-52:
(7*1)+(6*6)+(5*9)+(4*6)+(3*4)+(2*5)+(1*2)=136
136 % 10 = 6
So 16964-52-6 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

Novel synthesis of (-)-trans-Δ9,11-tetrahydrocannabinol

Banijamali,Makriyannis

, p. 823 - 825 (1988)

Addition of hydrogen chloride gas to a solution of Δ8-tetrahydrocannabinol in dry dichloromethane at -60° in the presence of zinc chloride results in the formation of a higher concentration of 9-α-chlorohexahydrocannabinol (75%) than the thermodynamically more stable 9-β-chlorohexahydrocannabinol (25%). The two isomers can be separated by reverse-phase hplc. Elimination of hydrogen chloride from 9-α-chlorohexahydrocannabinol using potassium t-amylate under anhydrous conditions gives exclusively Δ9,11-tetrahydrocannabinol in overall yield of 65%.
