Abstract
Incubation of (−)‐Δ^1^‐3, 4‐trans‐tetrahydrocannabinol (= Δ^1^‐THC; 3) with stationary cultures of Cunninghamella blakesleeana LENDER (Zygomycetales) (ATCC 8688a) yielded a number of metabolic conversion products. Isolation and structure elucidation of 6α‐hydroxy‐Δ^1^‐THC (4), the potential psychoactive 3″‐hydroxy‐Δ^1^‐THC (2) and 4″‐hydroxy‐Δ^1^‐THC (1), and the hitherto unknown metabolites 4″‐hydroxy‐6‐oxo‐Δ^1^‐THC (5), 4″, 6α‐dihydroxy‐Δ^1^‐THC (7) and 4″, 7‐dihydroxy‐Δ^1^‐THC (6) is described.
