Continuous-Flow Approach Towards Synthetic CBD

Rodrigo Souza, Associate Professor, Federal University of Rio de Janeiro

Recently, CBD was included in some countries as an antiepileptic product for compassionate use in children with refractory epilepsy. With the growth in the demand of CBD, comes a need for high purity-grade cannabinoids for the emerging market. The discovery and development of approaches toward cannabidiol synthesis have emerged from the extraction of the cannabis plants to cannabinoid fermentation in brewer’s yeast successfully. Here in we present our approach towards synthetic CBD by means fo continuous-flow protocol.
