Delta 11? Δ11?

not directly relevant, but the section on total synth for cannabinoids was interesting, none the less

I appreciate any continued direction toward discovery.

these guys apparently have it in their distillate carts. as well as everything else Buy Blue Dream Vape Cartridge CBG & CBN Cart Online | Hemp Hop

that looks like nothing i’d vape though from the profile.

D6-THC kind of has 69 in its nomenclature:

6H-Dibenzo[b,d]pyran-1-ol, 6a,7,10,10a-tetrahydro-6,6,9-trimethyl-3-pentyl-, (6aR-trans)-

Unfortunately that doesn’t have quite as good of a ring to it. All I know is I can’t wait until someone does a 1:1 of D9 and D6 and calls it a Delta-69 cart.

This is what i hate about all the different nomenclature of cannabinoids. Delta 9(11) is refered to as delta 11 in some older documented work

Do you have an article to share that sparked this?

Eco-THC sorts of says it all, but d9(11) or d9,11 also works.

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh FUCK HOW DID HE FIND OUT!!!

Gimmie gimmie dammit

so if i am understanding the nomenclature differences correctly, this is relevant then right? https://sci-hub.se/https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jo00804a024

^^ gonna try my d9thcp sample I think

exo-THC, delta 11 THC, and delta(9,11) THC are all the same compound where the double bond takes place outside the alicyclic carbon ring, hence the name exo-THC. delta(9,11) refers to the dibenzopyran numbering scheme which makes it easier to compare the double bond position to other THCs, but if I understand correctly, exo-THC is the more “colloquial” way to refer to this sort of molecule. Here’s a great example from Wikipedia:

Exocyclic

On the left is methylenecyclohexane, on the right is 1-methylcyclohexene. The former is exocyclic. Compare to exo-THC:

Where you can see the bond at the top there.

Making some progress…

Aw you changed your pfp.

There are a couple of ways of denoting this structure. I guess the “more correct” way is to say d9(11), implying that the double bond is between carbons 9 and 11. In case of d9-THC, including carbon 10 as in d9(10) isn’t necessary since 10 comes after 9. Another name for exo-THC is d11-THC, and here we don’t have to specify a second carbon since there’s only one way of having double bond involving carbon number 11.

And now I see that @JakovSau5 had already offered that line of reasoning…

Isn’t exo-thc [d9(11)] supposed to be found only in synthetic cannabinoids? Though I would think that will only last until someone finds exo-thc in flower. I believe we have accidentally made d9(11) a few times now. It is a very runny oil similar to cbc that doesn’t oxidize like typical d9. Have 15 canna standards and its not any of those. Need to snag the exo-thc crm. Been a while since I have worked on reactions.
