The decarboxylation of Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA) plays pivotal role in the potency of medical cannabis and its extracts. Our present work aims to draw attention to mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopy to in-situ monitor and decipher the THCA decarboxylation reaction in the solid state. The initial TG/DTG curves of THCA, for a first time, outlined the solid-solid decarboxylation dynamics, defined the endpoint of the process and the temperature of the maximal conversion rate, which aided in the design of the further IR experiment.
