Cannabis Compound Identification
Common NameTropolone
DescriptionTropolone also known as Purpurocatechol belongs to the class of organic compounds known as tropolones. Tropolones are compounds containing a tropone ring with a hydroxyl group at ring position 2. Tropolone is a hydroxylated derivative of tropone in which the hydroxyl group is substituted at C-2 of the tropone. Tropolone is a pale-yellow solid with a melting point of 51 oC that is soluble in organic solvents. Tropolone is found in black tea (https://doi.org/10.1021%2Fcr60284a002), grapes (as an inhibitor of polyphenol oxidase) ( Ref:DOI ) and in mushrooms (as an inhibitor of tyrosinase) ( Ref:DOI ). Tropolone is synthesized via a polyketide pathway, which affords a phenolic intermediate that undergoes ring expansion from a six to a seven-membered ring. Tropolone exhibits bactericidal activity and targets a wide variety of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria (PMID: 1147585 ). Tropolone is also found in cannabis smoke and is formed during the combustion of cannabis ( Ref:DOI ).
