Cannabielsoic Acid A (CBEA-A)

Cannabielsoin Acid (CBEA-A) can be described as a substance made from marijuana or cannabis plant. CBEA is an enantiomer of Cannabigerovarinic Acid (CBGVA) which is further broken down by the process of oxidation, resulting in Cannabielsoin (CBE).

​

CBEA-A has been one of the first discoveries made in the year 1940, when British scientist Robert S. Cahn revealed the partially formed design of the chemical cannabinol (CBN).

​

In the course of research on Cannabis, CBEA-A was found in conjunction with other compounds such as CBD, CBC, CBG, CBN as well as other compounds discovered during the study. Researchers  identified a resin found in the active flowering marijuana plant, also known as Hashish.

​

The compound is produced through a series of transformations during the flowering stage. CBEA-A was created out of the main precursor called cannabigerovarinic acid (CBGVA) CBGVA, which is identified by scientists as the mother of all cannabinoids.

​

It is derived from CBGVA by using manganese in the atmosphere, it's made by oxidative cyclization.

A CBEA-A molecule has multiple bonds, membered rings, hydroxyl groups aromatic hydroxyls, non-H bonds and rotatable bonds, as well as alcohol, carboxylic acid. Its structure is based on bonding and arrangement of atoms that hold atoms to each other.

​

The fascination for CBEA-A stems from its chemical composition and position the power cell. CBEA-A, as well as other variants of these remain to be studied and much is expected in the future of a futuristic design.

Researchers are seeking to unlock additional functions of cannabis plants , aside from its therapeutic or psychoactive properties and hope for CBEA-A as the crucial.
