Methyl Olivetolate is an intermediate in synthesizing Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinolic Acid (Acid A & B) (T293235). It is one of the substances screened for in meconium drug testings for medicinal opiods among addicted mothers. Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinolic Acid has been shown to protect dopaminergic neurons against 1-methyl-4-Ph pyridinium (MPP+) induced cell death. | [Synthesis Reference(s)]
