Cannabichromanone

Cannabichromanone (CBCN) is a naturally occurring phytocannabinoid produced by the cannabis plant, and it belongs to the 2,2-dimethyl-1-benzopyrans class of organic compounds.

It is more nonpolar than THC, which may reduce the compounds ability to interact with the CB1 recpetor.

Cannabichromanone D is an analog of the primary compound, and it’s molecular arrangement shows promise when it comes to its potential in becoming a bioactive compound. This is because three out of four molecular models called pharmacophores demonstrate they may have enough energy to elicit receptor activation.

6a-R-cannabichromanone B is considered a metabolite of cannabis, noted by https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acsomega.9b02663, as are 6a-R-cannabichromanone C and 6a-R-cannabichromanone D.

At the time of writing, very little is known about this cannabinoid, though it has shown promise with mile antimalerial and moderate antileishmanial activity.
