Olivetol is an off-white crystals or olive to light purple waxy solid. Forms monohydrate (melting point: 102-106°F). Olivetol is a member of the class of resorcinols that is resorcinol in which the hydrogen at position 5 is replaced by a pentyl group. It has a role as a lichen metabolite.
용도
Olivetol was used as a template molecule in the synthesis of molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP). It was also used as an inhibitor of (S)-mephenytoin 4'-hydroxylase activity of recombinant CYP2C19.
주요 응용
Olivetol is a precursor in various syntheses of tetrahydrocannabinol.
제조 방법
olivetol can also be formed through hydrolysis of intermediate polyketide CoAs or spontaneous cyclization.

공기와 물의 반응
Sensitive to air. Insoluble in water.
반응 프로필
Olivetol is incompatible with acid chlorides, acid anhydrides and oxidizing agents.
화재위험
Olivetol is probably combustible.
생물학적 활성
Olivetol (5-Pentylresorcinol, 5-n-Amylresorcinol) is a naturally occurring organic compound being a precursor in various syntheses of tetrahydrocannabinol. It acts as a competitive inhibitor of the cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2.
Safety
Olivetol is still a very new product. It has not been researched nearly enough to prove it's safe to use. So far, no one has reported any adverse side effects as far as we know. Until more information is available, carefully control your THC intake instead of relying on an untested gelcap.
