    Abstract Enantioselective syntheses of (−)-Δ8-tetrahydrocannabinol ((−)-Δ8-THC) and (−)-Δ9-THC have been achieved in eight and 10 steps, respectively, from a known cinnamic acid. The syntheses take advantage of an enantioselective N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalyzed (4 + 2) annulation between donor–acceptor cyclobutanes and cinnamoyl fluorides to construct the highly enantioenriched cycloxyl β-lactone shown. Having constructed this A-ring precursor, elaboration to (−)-Δ8-THC is achieved through β-lactone alcoholysis followed by oxidation, dual decarboxylation, trimethylation, and cationic cyclization. Finally, the conversion to (−)-Δ9-THC is achieved with established chemistry.

    Abstract Cannabichromene (CBC) and cannabichromenic acid (CBCA) are cannabis constituents currently under evaluation for their therapeutic potential, but their pharmacological properties have not been thoroughly investigated. The most studied ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters, ABC subfamily G member 2 (ABCG2) and ABC subfamily B member 1 (ABCB1) limit absorption of substrate drugs in the gut and brain. Moreover, inhibitors of these proteins can lead to clinically significant drug-drug interactions (DDIs). The current study sought to examine whether CBC and CBCA affect ABCB1 and ABCG2 to advance their basic pharmacological characterisation. The plant cannabinoids CBC and CBCA were screened in vitro in a bidirectional transport assay to determine whether they were substrates and/or inhibitors of ABCB1 and ABCG2. Transwell assays with polarized epithelial Madin-Darby Canine Kidney II (MDCK) cells expressing ABCB1 or ABCG2 were used. Samples were measured using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). CBCA was found to be an ABCB1 substrate, but not an ABCG2 substrate. CBC was not a substrate of either transporter. Neither CBCA nor CBC inhibited ABCB1 transport of prazosin or ABCG2 transport of digoxin. In silico molecular docking suggested CBCA binds ABCB1 in the access tunnel and the central binding pocket. CBC, an agent with anticonvulsant, anti-inflammatory and anti-depressant properties, is not a substrate or inhibitor of ABCB1 or ABCG2, which is favourable to its therapeutic development. CBCA is an ABCB1 substrate in vitro which might contribute to its poor absorption. These findings provide important basic pharmacological data to assist the therapeutic development of these cannabis constituents.

    Abstract Cannabis-based products are increasingly being used to treat refractory childhood epilepsies such as Dravet syndrome. Cannabis contains at least 140 terpenophenolic compounds known as phytocannabinoids. These include the known anticonvulsant compound cannabidiol (CBD) and several molecules showing emergent anticonvulsant properties in animal models. Cannabichromene (CBC) is a phytocannabinoid frequently detected in artisanal cannabis oils used in the community by childhood epilepsy patients. Here we examined the brain and plasma pharmacokinetic profiles of CBC, cannabichromenic acid (CBCA), cannabichromevarin (CBCV), and cannabichromevarinic acid (CBCVA) following intraperitoneal administration in mice. The anticonvulsant potential of each was then tested against hyperthermia-induced seizures in the

    Abstract Herein we report the enantioselective (4+2) annulation of donor-acceptor cyclobutanes and unsaturated acyl fluorides using N-heterocyclic carbene catalysis. The reaction allows a 3-step synthesis of cyclohexyl β-lactones (25 examples) in excellent chemical yield (most ≥90 %) and stereochemical integrity (all >20:1 d.r., most ≥97:3 e.r.). Mechanistic studies support ester enolate Claisen rearrangement, while derivatizations provide functionalized cyclohexenes and dihydroquinolinones.
