Cannabis Compound Identification
Common Name(R)-mevalonate
DescriptionMevalonic acid, also known as DL-mevalonate or MVA, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as hydroxy fatty acids. These are fatty acids in which the chain bears a hydroxyl group. Mevalonic acid is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Mevalonic acid is a potentially toxic compound. (R)-mevalonate is expected to be in Cannabis as all living plants are known to produce and metabolize it.
