Cannabidiolic acid (CBDA), is a cannabinoid produced in cannabis plants.[1] It is the precursor to cannabidiol (CBD). It is most abundant in the glandular trichomes on the female seedless flowers or more accurately infructescence often colloquially referred to as buds or flowers.[2]
Biosynthesis
[edit]Cannabidiolic acid is a natural product sesquiterpene biosynthesized in cannabis via Cannabidiolic acid synthase from the conjugation of olivetolic acid and cannabigerolic acid.[3]
Decarboxylation
[edit]CBDA is the chemical precursor to cannabidiol (CBD). Through the process of decarboxylation cannabidiol is derived through a loss of one carbon and two oxygen atoms acetyl from the 1 position of the benzoic acid ring.
