A challenging step in the preparation of tetrahydrocannabinol analogs is an acid-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization of the cannabidiol precursor. This step typically affords a mixture of products, which requires extensive purification to obtain any pure products. We report the development of two continuous-flow protocols for the preparation of (-)--Δ-tetrahydrocannabinol and (-)--Δ-tetrahydrocannabinol.
