<p>In this manuscript we describe a modular pathway to synthesize biologically relevant (–)-<i>trans</i>-Δ<sup>8</sup>-THC derivatives, which can be used to modulate the pharmacologically important CB<sub>1</sub> and CB<sub>2</sub> receptors. This pathway involves a one-pot Friedel-Crafts alkylation/cyclization protocol, followed by Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions and gives rise to a series of new Δ<sup>8</sup>-THC derivatives. In addition, we demonstrate using extensive NMR evidence that similar halide-substituted Friedel-Crafts alkylation/cyclization products in previous articles were wrongly assigned as the para-isomers, which also has consequence for the assignment of the subsequent cross-coupled products and interpretation of their biological activity. </p> <p>Considering the importance of the availability of THC derivatives in medicinal chemistry research and the fact that previously synthesized compounds were wrongly assigned, we feel this research is describing a straightforward pathway into new cannabinoids.</p>

Herein, we present the first Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling in a sustainable natural deep eutectic solvent (NaDES) applied to biologically relevant imidazo-fused scaffolds imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine and imidazo[1,2-b]pyridazine. The choline chloride/glycerol (1:2, mol/mol) NaDES allowed the functionalisation of diverse positions on the heterocycles with various boronic acids, by using 2.5 mol% of readily available Pd(OAc)2. Notably, the catalytic system proceeds without any ligands or additives, without protection from the atmosphere.
