Chemical structure of Delta 7 THC

Compound Monograph

Delta 7 THC

Other Constituents Natural (plant-derived)

A rarely discussed THC isomer, set apart by the position of one double bond — far less common than delta-9 or delta-8, and studied so little that its potency and effects remain unknown.

Research & Evidence

Delta-7-THC is a rarely discussed isomer of tetrahydrocannabinol, distinguished by the position of a double bond within the molecule. It is one of the more obscure THC isomers and has been the subject of very little study. Reliable information about its potency, effects in humans and natural abundance is scarce, and it is encountered far less often than delta-9 or delta-8.

Toxicity & Safety

Very little is established about delta-7-THC specifically, including its safety profile in humans. In the absence of meaningful data it should not be assumed to be either safe or equivalent to the better-characterized THC isomers.
