Would anyone be interested in me posting a write up, or even a video, of how to do a semi-synthesis of THC from CBD? Its one of the more fun chemistry experiments IMO and can be done from home. Thankfully I'm in a location where it would be legal as well.

@freemo I would surely enjoy that, even though I don't smoke or even like THC. Plant chemistry is fun

@arteteco it would be process more than on-paper chemistry (which is simple as its a one-bond change, basically just protonation)

But yea i can share it, the process is simple but fun, basically a reflux, some acid, neutralization, then cleaning and distilling off the hexane.
