Abstract: Various aspects of this patent document relate to liquid compositions comprising cannabidiol, which have either freezing points or glass-liquid transition temperatures less than the melting point of pure cannabidiol.
Abstract: Various aspects of this patent document relate to a method to extract an oil from a plant material using an apparatus by first exposing the plant material to a heated gas stream at a temperature sufficient to volatilize the oil from the plant material, and then rapidly cooling the gas stream to liquefy the oil.
Abstract: Various aspects of this disclosure relate to a composition, comprising a liquid phase that consists of chemical species that comprise tetrahydrocannabinol, one or more flavyliums, and a solvent, wherein each chemical species of the liquid phase has a concentration in the liquid phase; the tetrahydrocannabinol is dissolved in the liquid phase at a concentration of at least 0.1 percent and no greater than 8 percent by mass; each flavylium of the one or more flavyliums is a substituted 2-phenylchromenylium that consists of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms; the solvent is miscible with water; and the liquid phase comprises the solvent at a greater concentration by mass than any other chemical species of the liquid phase.

Abstract: Various aspects of the disclosure relate to methods and systems for extracting plant oil from plant material. A system may comprise a microwave emitter, an extraction chamber, and a cooling chamber. Microwave radiation emitted by the microwave emitter may dielectrically heat a microwave absorbing agent, which may heat the plant oil of the plant material. Plant oil of the plant material may be volatized in the extraction chamber and may be directed into the cooling chamber to be condensed.

Abstract: An apparatus for extracting an oil from plant material includes an extraction chamber for plant material. The plant material is exposed to a heated gas stream with a temperature sufficient to volatilize on oil from the plant material. The gas stream is rapidly cooled to liquefy the oil into entrained droplets. The oil is collected with a collection solvent.
Abstract: Various aspects of this patent application relate to methods to separate a cannabinoid molecule from other molecules of a decarboxylated cannabinoid extract.

Abstract: Various aspects of this patent document relate to the rapid purification and decarboxylation of cannabinoids by vaporization and condensation.
Abstract: Various aspects of this disclosure relate to methods to lower the activation energy of the cannabinoid decarboxylation reaction by performing the decarboxylation reaction in the gas phase.
Abstract: Various aspects of the disclosure relate to methods and systems for extracting oil from plant material. A system may comprise a gas moving device, an extraction chamber, and a condensation surface. Oil of the plant material may be volatized in the extraction chamber and then propelled by the gas moving device to the condensation surface to be collected. In various embodiments, the systems and methods allow the extraction of oil from plant material with little or no solvent.
Abstract: Various aspects of the disclosure relate to compositions comprising 2-[(1R,6R)-6-isopropenyl-3-methylcyclohex-2-en-1-yl]-3-hydroxy-5-pentylphenolate and 2-[(1R,6R)-6-isopropenyl-3-methylcyclohex-2-en-1-yl]-5-pentylbenzene-1,3-diol.
Abstract: Various aspects of this patent document relate to methods to separate cannabidiol and tetrahydrocannabinol by adjusting their solubility in alcohol and water solutions.
