Patent Information
Seven Dependent Claims Two independent claims:
1. A process for preparing Dronabinol by esterifying cis-(1R,2S)-2-hydroxy-4-methylcyclohex-3-ene carboxylic acid to form a lower alkyl ester. Then, subjecting the lower alkyl ester to a nucleophilic addition reaction with an appropriate organometallic compound to form cis-(3S,4R)-1-methyl-3-hydroxy-4-(2-hydroxyprop-2-yl) cyclohex-1-ene. Finally, reacting said product with olivetol (1,3-dihydroxy-5-n-pentylbenzene).

Patent Information
2. A process of preparing dronabinol, which comprises the successive steps of: (a) reacting 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol with acetic anhydride under acidic conditions, followed by transition metal catalyzed rearrangement, to obtain 1-acetoxy-3-methyl-1,3-butadiene; (b) subjecting the product to Diels-Alder reaction with methyl acrylate to form methyl 2-acetoxy-4-methyl cyclohex-3-ene carboxylate; (c) isolating the racemic cis isomer of product from (b) by crystallization; (d) converting this carboxylate to racemic cis-2-hydroxy-4-methylcyclohex-3-ene carboxylic acid; (e) resolving the racemic mixture to obtain significantly enantiomerically enriched cis-2-hydroxy-4-methylcyclohex-3-ene carboxylic acid; (f) esterifying the resolved product from (e) to form a lower alkyl ester (g) reacting the lower alkyl ester with a methyl magnesium halide to form cis-menth-1-ene-3,8-diol; (h) reacting product from (g) with olivetol to form 1,3-dihydroxy-2-[(1R,6R)-6-(2-hydroxyprop-2-yl)-3-methylcyclohex-2-en-1-y- l]-5-n-pentylbenzene; and (i) cyclizing the product from (h) to obtain dronabinol.
