The Complexities of Delta 8 and Delta 10 THC

[@stevengill1736]

What an amazing variety of phytochemicals!

[@dertythegrower]

Thank you sir. We appreciate the educational video.

[@burn1gotbeats]

I appreciate this info.

Really fantastic video. I’ve experienced some mild adverse effects from Delta Effex D8/D10 mix. It’s good to know what this stuff really is.

Slight wheezing from the Effex dispos?

[@TrueManCrowyote]

@@GQFJB Nope. Cluster headaches and hard lumps appearing on my temples. It was from their carts, not the dispos. My cart went on to leak, and once I eliminated using it the symptoms went away.

Delta effex sells garbage

How can you say the only difference is the double bond? Im not a scientist, but there are multiple hydrogen bonds that differ as well.

[@orangephotonics7168]

Thank you Tyler and I'm sorry we're just seeing your comment now. I believe you are referring to the differences between D8THC and D9THC. From a chemical perspective, there really is only one double bond difference. Technically that means that some of the hydrogens are connected in different places since carbon has 4 bonding locations. Any of the bonds not shown in organic chemistry generally have an assumed hydrogen attached. So along with the double bond movement, the carbon at different locations will swap from having one hydrogen attached to two. Again, this is usually assumed in organic chemistry when a hydrocarbon has a double bond, but technically that's right- hydrogen atom locations are also shifted with the D8 configuration.

While i like the ease of getting "legal" Marijuana i think its a negative overall for federal legalization.

[@eadantrimble4514]

I thought they had different sized tails

[@orangephotonics7168]

Thanks for your question Eadan. D8THC has the same number of atoms as D9THC. This is what is called an "isomer"- same chemical formula but different arrangement of the atoms. The only difference, in this case, is the location of one double bond as mentioned during the talk. You may be thinking of "Varin" cannabinoids, such as THCV, which actually have two fewer carbon atoms on their tail. Stay tuned, I'm sure we will be discussing Varin cannabinoids soon!

[@eadantrimble4514]

@@orangephotonics7168 Thanks! I liked your explanation a lot, I was actually thinking of thcv, and thcp, hearing how the longer tail makes it stronger, now I see the difference between isomers and modifications

Would have really enjoyed this vid if the speaker could curb his use of « a » every few seconds!!
