CBDP — cannabinoid profile

CBDP (Cannabidiphorol) is a cannabinoid that occurs naturally in cannabis or is derived from its precursors. Molecular formula C₂₃H₃₄O₂, molar mass 342.5 g/mol. Among the 100+ identified cannabinoids, CBDP belongs to the non-psychoactive group. This page consolidates current knowledge on chemistry, occurrence in cannabis, receptor action and Swiss legal status — for information only.

CBDP · C₂₃H₃₄O₂ · 200 °C · non-psychoactive · in Switzerland: legal.

Chemistry

Chemically, CBDP is a terpenophenol (meroterpenoid). CBDP arises enzymatically from a heptyl-chain CBGA homolog (CBGPA), in parallel with CBD formation from CBGA. Boiling point ~200 °C. It is lipophilic, sensitive to heat and light, and slowly oxidises in air. Analytically it is quantified by HPLC (acid form) and GC-MS (neutral form after decarboxylation) and appears on every modern Swiss batch COA.

Occurrence in cannabis

In cannabis, CBDP is produced in the trichomes of the female flower. Typical concentrations: Spurenmengen (<< 0.1 %) in FM2-Medizinalcannabis. Content depends on genetics, light spectrum, harvest timing and storage. Specific strains are linked dynamically below from our strain database.

Swiss legal status

CBDP is not listed as a narcotic in Switzerland. Legal in products < 1 % THC — pure substance is barely commercially available. Swiss legal note: cannabis with ≥ 1 % THC is a narcotic under the Narcotics Act. CBD products below 1 % THC are legal. Effect descriptions are informational and are not therapeutic claims.
