Synthesis and chemistry
It is believed to be made in a three step process from cannabidiol extracted from industrial hemp by synthesis of Delta-8-THC from CBD, then hydrogenation of Delta-8-THC to Hexahydrocannabinol, then finally acetylation of HHC.[3]
Legality
The legal status of hexahydrocannabinol and derivatives such as HHC-O varies between countries leading to widespread sale in some jurisdictions in Europe and the US, but in France HHC and HHC-O were banned in 2023, and HHC is already banned in several other countries.[4] This molecule has also been banned in the Czech Republic.[5]
