Here, we report a three-step concise and stereoselective synthesis route to one of the most important phytocannabinoids, namely, (-)-cannabidiol (-CBD), from inexpensive and readily available starting material R-(+)-limonene. The synthesis involved the diastereoselective bifunctionalization of limonene, followed by effective elimination leading to the generation of key chiral p-mentha-2,8-dien-1-ol. The chiral p-mentha-2,8-dien-1-ol on coupling with olivetol under silver catalysis provided regiospecific (-)-CBD, contrary to reported ones which gave a mixture. The newly developed approach was further extended to its structural analogues cannabidiorcin and other tail/terpenyl-modified analogues. Moreover, its opposite isomer (+)-cannabidiol was also successfully synthesized from S-(-)-limonene.

Natural cannabidiol ((-)-CBD) and its derivatives have increased interest for medicinal applications due to their broad biological activity spectrum, including targeting of the cannabinoid receptors type 1 (CB1R) and type 2 (CB2R). Herein, we synthesized the (+)-enantiomer of CBD and its derivative (+)-CBD hydroxypentylester ((+)-CBD-HPE) that showed enhanced CB1R and CB2R binding and functional activities compared to their respective (-) enantiomers. (+)-CBD-HPE Ki values for CB1R and CB2R were 3.1 ± 1.1 and 0.8 ± 0.1 nM respectively acting as CB1R antagonist and CB2R agonist. We further tested the capacity of (+)-CBD-HPE to prevent hyperglycemia and its complications in a mouse model. (+)-CBD-HPE significantly reduced streptozotocin (STZ)-induced hyperglycemia and glucose intolerance by preserving pancreatic beta cell mass. (+)-CBD-HPE significantly reduced activation of NF-κB by phosphorylation by 15% compared to STZ-vehicle mice, and CD3+ T cell infiltration into the islets was avoided. Consequently, (+)-CBD-HPE prevented STZ-induced apoptosis in islets. STZ induced inflammation and kidney damage, visualized by a significant increase in plasma proinflammatory cytokines, creatinine, and BUN. Treatment with (+)-CBD-HPE significantly reduced 2.5-fold plasma IFN-γ and increased 3-fold IL-5 levels compared to STZ-treated mice, without altering IL-18. (+)-CBD-HPE also significantly reduced creatinine and BUN levels to those comparable to healthy controls. At the macroscopy level, (+)-CBD-HPE prevented STZ-induced lesions in the kidney and voided renal fibrosis and CD3+ T cell infiltration. Thus, (+)-enantiomers of CBD, particularly (+)-CBD-HPE, have a promising potential due to their pharmacological profile and synthesis, potentially to be used for metabolic and immune-related disorders.
(+)-TRANS TETRAHYDROCANNABINOL ((+)-TRANS-THC) FOR USE AS A MEDICAMENT
-
, (2021/04/30)
The present invention relates to a tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) type cannabinoid compound for use as a medicament. The THC-type cannabinoid is an enantiomer of the (-)-trans- tetrahydrocannabinol which is a naturally occurring cannabinoid that can be found in cannabis plant strains which have been bred to yield THC as the dominant cannabinoid. The particular enantiomer (+)-trans tetrahydrocannabinol has been found to have properties which are different from the naturally occurring (-)-trans-THC. The cannabinoid (+)-trans-THC has been found to occur in low concentrations in particular cannabis plant strains. Furthermore, the cannabinoid can be produced by synthetic means.

(?)-Cannabidiol [(?)-CBD] has recently gained prominence as a treatment for neuro-inflammation and other neurodegenerative disorders; interest is also developing in its synthetic enantiomer, (+)-CBD, which has a higher affinity to CB1/CB2 receptors than the natural stereoisomer. We have developed an inexpensive, stereoselective route to access ent-CBD derivatives using (+)-carvone as a starting material. In addition to (+)-CBD, we report the first syntheses of (+)-cannabidivarin, (+)-cannabidiphorol as well as C-6/C-8 homologues.

The monocyclic 1,4-benzoquinone, HU-331, the direct oxidation product of cannabidiol, inhibits the catalytic activity of topoisomerase II but without inducing DNA strand breaks or generating free radicals, and unlike many fused-ring quinones exhibits minimal cardiotoxicity. Thus, monocyclic quinones have potential as anticancer agents, and investigation of the structural origins of their biological activity is warranted. New syntheses of cannabidiol and (±)-HU-331 are here reported. Integrated synthetic protocols afforded a wide range of polysubstituted resorcinol derivatives; many of the corresponding novel 2-hydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone derivatives are potent inhibitors of the catalytic activity of topoisomerase II, some more so than HU-331, whose monoterpene unit replaced by a 3-cycloalkyl unit conferred increased antiproliferative properties in cell lines with IC50 values extending below 1 mM, and greater stability in solution than HU-331. The principal pharmacophore of quinones related to HU-331 was identified. Selected monocyclic quinones show potential for the development of new anticancer agents.
