  • the disclosure also relates to the use of catalysts and catalytic processes for the preparation of cannabinoids using the cannabinoid sulfonate esters as precursors.
  • CBD cannabidiol
  • THC tetrahydrocannabinol
  • CBD-rich strains of cannabis has been developed and used medicinally for treating inflammation, AIDS, ALS, Alzheimer’s disease, anorexia, anxiety, arthritis, asthma, cancer, depression, diabetes, epilepsy, glaucoma, migraine, nausea, neuropathic pain, Parkinson’s disease, just to name a few.
  • CBD cannabidiol
  • CBD Tetrahydrocannabivarin
  • the demand for pure, single component CBD and other cannabinoids is growing rapidly and as the demand for medicinal and legal recreational cannabis continues to grow, the amount of cannabis plants grown and harvested specifically for the extraction of cannabinoids will diminish.
  • the advantage of synthesized cannabinoids relative to the products extracted from medicinal cannabis or hemp plants is the stability of supply, and control over quality and scalability.
  • the output can always be adjusted depending on demand.
  • Extracted cannabis resin contains more than 150 cannabinoid products, in addition to other compounds present in the plant. Even for cannabis plants with high CBD or THC content, the process of extracting and purifying the products is laborious, time consuming and only small amounts of the desired components relative to the amount of plant material is realized.
  • the cannabis or hemp crop and quality can be impacted by drought, pests, pesticides and inclement weather.
  • the present invention in some aspects, describes an approach to developing synthetic cannabinoids that focuses on the use of cheap and commercially available chemicals and use of these chemicals to prepare stable precursors that can be transformed into the desired cannabinoid product on demand.
  • Such commercially available chemicals include, but are not limited to limonene, resorcinol and their derivatives.
  • the invention relates to the preparation of new cannabinoid sulfonate ester compounds and the use of such sulfonate ester compounds for the preparation of cannabinoid products using catalysts and catalytic processes to substitute the sulfonate groups.
  • the cannabinoid sulfonate esters can be prepared and purified prior to transformation to the desired individual cannabinoid products.
