We are grateful to Emerald Biotechnology Spain and MIUR,
Italy (PRIN2017, Project 2017WN73PL, bioactivity-directed
exploration of the phytocannabinoid chemical space), for
financial support. We also thank Vittorio Farina (Farinachem
Consulting GmbH) for discussions and suggestions on the
mechanistic aspects of the formation of cannabicyclol from
cannabichromene.
