Description

4-Ethoxyphenylacetic acid is an organic compound that belongs to the class of cannabinoids. It is a metabolite of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and can be used as a precursor to other cannabinoids, such as cannabidiol. This substance also has been shown to have canalization effects on plant physiology and root formation. 4-Ethoxyphenylacetic acid is synthesized in a solid-phase synthesis and purified by hydrogen chloride gas. The synthesis is efficient and can be done in gram quantities. Structural studies have shown that this molecule binds to cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2, which are found throughout the body, including the brain. 4-Ethoxyphenylacetic acid may act as a regulator for these receptors, with its effects depending on concentration.
