Chemical compound
Cannabichromenic acid (CBCA) is minorcannabinoid and precursor ofcannabichromene.[2]
Biosynthesis
Geranyl pyrophosphate andolivetolic acid combine to producecannabigerolic acid (CBGA; the sole intermediate for all other phytocannabinoids). The enzyme CBCA synthase can cyclize either cannabigerolic acid orcannabinerolic acid (theZ isomer of CBGA) to form CBCA.[3]
