Same here. I’d like to check it out using some different instrumentation.

Ill see if i can grab some more today, im supposed to go tour there lab. Theyve ran all the necessary tests to prove it’s d10a, im really new to testing or id try to explain more. They used a diode array detector to detect the location of the hydroxyl group (forgive me if this is the incorrect term)

Can someone point me to a study on delta 10 effects on humans or animals? The anecdotal reports are great, but in order to create a demand for this it would be nice if we could cite some research. If any exists…

I would like to see spectroscopic evidence of Δ10.

Wait so 10a or 10? Those are not the same thing.
It’s 10a, it crystallizes on its own

They know its not cbc for 1 because they have something on there HPLC or whatever that lets them see the PH, if it was cbc it wouldnt come up as an acid

Why two peaks on GC? Diastereomers?
The first D10 theory was based on the fact that outdoor material from Nor Cal seemed to produce high D10 levels. The theoretical explanation was that Phoschek from fire zones was to blame.
When digging through the SDS for Phoscheck you’ll find that Phosphoric acid esters are a surfactant used. I would suggest looking in this direction for a catalyst. Refluxing with our high pH carbon(HPC), will give you a media with a relative pH of 9…should you need an alkaline environment.
I have a buddy in the surfactant industry so anything that becomes useful to us in bulk can be acquired.

Thankyou so much.
Acids will produce wild side reactions, you’ll never hit that high of purity d10 without a specific catalyst
Super interesting!
acid ester …big difference homie. The ester is a phosphorus catalyst.

thats what i was thinking. some sort of chiral phosphoric acid derivative…here is a review on the binol based phosphoric acids

Try it and let me know how it goes 
phosphorus wont cause recarboxolation. That should give you a clue as to what catalyst to use

Theres more then 1 grade of phoscheck btw
Let me guess, some sort of palladium based catalyst in a hydrogenator-type reactor with co2 feed?

Did we ever figure out what the chiral centers orientation? Did you see diastereomerism on the NMR?
