Chemistry:THCP-O-acetate
From HandWiki
THCP-O-acetate (THCP-O) is a semi-synthetic derivative of tetrahydrocannabiphorol (THCP) derived by acetylation of the OH group. It has been found as a component of grey-market cannabis products such as e-cigarette liquids and edible gummy lollies, and is allegedly a potent and long-lasting psychoactive cannabinoid.[1]
Toxicity
In 2022, researchers at Portland State University who screened for the presence of reacted ketene as N-benzylacetamide reported that Vitamin E acetate, CBD-acetate, CBN-acetate and THC-O-acetate may break down to release ketene gas when heated at 340 °C (644 °F).[2][3]
Legality
Japan banned THCP-O-Acetate along with HHCP on December 26, 2023.[4]
