[0001] CHEMICAL O-GLYCOSYLATION AND GLUCURONIDATION OF CANNABINOIDS CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This International PCT Application claims the benefit of and priority to U.S. Provisional Application No.63 / 626,997, filed January 30, 2023. The specification, claims, and figures of the above-referenced application is hereby incorporated, in its entirety by reference. TECHNICAL FIELD The present disclosure is generally directed to the synthesis of novel cannabinoid glycosides and cannabinoid glucuronides, and in particular methods for the in vitro chemical synthesis of cannabinoid glycosides and cannabinoid glucuronides. BACKGROUND The Cannabis plant (Cannabis sativa L.), known for its medicinal and recreational uses, has been utilized for thousands of years. Recently, it has attracted considerable attention for its secondary metabolites, thanks to remarkable advancement made in elucidating the structure of these metabolites over several decades. The plant produces more than 600 chemical compounds, which include a diverse set of small molecules such as cannabinoids, flavonoids, stilbenoids, terpenoids, polyketides, oxylipins, and alkaloids (Stasiłowicz et al., Int J Mol 2021, 22, 778). Among these, cannabinoids, a class of mono- to tetracyclic meroterpenoids with 130 members known as phytocannabinoids, are the most important (Lange et al., Phytochem Rev 2922, 21, 1273). These naturally occurring cannabinoids can be classified into 11 subclasses based on their biosynthetic origin and core structures. These include cannabigerol (CBG), cannabichromene (CBC), cannabidiol (CBD), (−)-Δ9-trans-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC), (−)-Δ8-trans- tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ8-THC), cannabicyclol (CBL), cannabielsoin (CBE), cannabinol (CBN), cannabinodiol (CBND), cannabitriol (CBT), and other miscellaneous cannabinoids. Over the years, numerous studies have supported the therapeutic potential of these cannabinoids in treating various medical conditions such as pain, anxiety, epilepsy, nausea, vomiting, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Subsequently, the two most abundant cannabinoids in cannabis plants, Δ9-THC and CBD, have been successfully developed into medicines (Banerjee et al., Org Biomol Chem 2023, 21, 3715). For instance, Dronabinol, which contains Δ9-THC formulated in sesame oil, became the first FDA-approved cannabinoid medication for anorexia associated with weight loss in patients with AIDS and nausea and vomiting associated with cancer chemotherapy. Epidiolex®(a pure CBD solution) and Sativex®(a 1:1 CBD and Δ9-THC oromucosal spray) were approved by the US Food and Drug Administration and the European Medicine Agency for two rare, treatment-resistant seizures associated with Lennox Gastaut syndrome (LGS) and Dravet syndrome (DS), and for alleviating neuropathic pain and symptoms of multiple sclerosis. Minor cannabinoids such as CBG, CBN, CBC, CBDA, CBGA, CBDV, THCV, and others have also been the focus of pharmacological studies over the last few decades (Walsh et al., Front. Pharmacol 2021,12:777804). These are currently being investigated in several clinical trials for their potential therapeutic effects related to sleep disorders, obesity, diabetes, anti-inflammatory properties, and beneficial skin properties. Following the 2018 US Farm Bill, which legalized industrial hemp with less than 0.3% Δ9- THC content (dry weight), these hemp-derived cannabinoids have gained significant popularity in recent years. They are used as ingredients in food, beverages, supplements, personal care products, cosmetics, and other consumer products. CBD, in particular, stands out as a consumer favorite and is available in various forms like candies, beverages, baked goods, chocolates, sauces, and savory snacks. As the cannabis consumer market rapidly evolves, there is growing interest in minor cannabinoids such as CBDA, CBC, CBN, and CBG. These compounds are also gaining attention for their potential benefits in pain relief, sleep aids, and skincare, among other areas. Consistent with the current trend, the global market value of CBD-containing products is expected to grow rapidly. A study conducted by BDS Analytics predicts that CBD sales in the U.S. alone will exceed $20 billion by 2024 (Zenone et al., BMC Public Heal 2021, 21, 1285). Edible CBD in food and recreational beverage products has become an increasingly popular route of CBD consumption and represents a fast-growing subsector in the industry. As discussed, CBD and other hemp-derived cannabinoids have a variety of pharmacological and consumer product applications. However, when administered orally, these products not only delay reaching an appropriate concentration in blood and tissue, but also exhibit low and variable oral bioavailability (Bar-Hai et al., Expert Opinion Drug Metab Toxicol 2022, 18 (5), 313; McClements et al., Annu Rev Food Sci Technol 2020, 11, 45). Several factors contribute to these undesired pharmacokinetic behaviors, including poor solubility in an aqueous environment, incomplete gastrointestinal absorption, instability in gastric pH, extensive hepatic metabolism, and drug-drug interactions. The high hydrophobicity and intrinsically low solubility of these cannabinoids are considered the primary factors contributing to their unpredictable oral bioavailability. This necessitates the use of oils and solvents as carriers in product formulations, which are often not well-tolerated and result in poor consumer compliance. Additionally, the highly lipophilic cannabinoids are prone to degradation, especially in solution, because of the effects of light, temperature, and autooxidation. In response to this challenge, research activity has increased dramatically to develop new technologies for improving water solubility. These techniques include crystal engineering, particle size reduction, solid dispersion, carrier systems (such as nanotechnology), and structural modification (such as prodrugs and salt formation) (Bhalani et al., Biomed 2022,10, 2055). Each technology has its own benefits and limitations in enhancing water solubility, and the choice often depends on the specific properties of the molecules and their intended use. However, compared to other pharmaceutical technologies, structural modifications provide a more direct and efficient method to improve the solubility and oral bioavailability of poorly water-soluble molecules. In this context, the structural modification of CBD and other cannabinoids has been successfully demonstrated to improve their solubility by combining prodrug and salt formation strategies (Kim, WO 2023235386 A1, Trait Biosciences). In nature, a crucial process exists for the modification of chemical structures in natural products (e.g., plant), facilitated by tailoring enzymes (Härtl et al., Tailoring Natural Products with Glycosyltransferases. 2017, 219–263). One such pathway is glycosylation, which involves the transfer of sugar units to a natural aglycone and is typically catalyzed by enzymes known as glycosyltransferases (GTs). The addition of a sugar residue significantly enhances water solubility and stability and improves biological and pharmacological properties by reducing toxicity and side effects. As a result, natural glycosides have become attractive target compounds for use in food additives, cosmetics, therapeutics, and nutraceuticals. Today, many glycosides are utilized as therapeutic drugs, functional ingredients, and dietary supplements. Phenolic glycosides, a class of natural glycosides, have gained special attention due to the widespread presence of various phenolic compounds in nature and their promising pharmacological properties, including antitumor, antioxidant, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory effects (Xu et al., J Carbohydr Chem 2016, 35(1), 1). Despite the importance of phenolic compounds, their application is limited due to their poor solubility and instability in aqueous solutions (Lobiuc et al., Molecules 2023, 28(3), 1114). Therefore, glycosylation of natural phenolic products, including arbutin, caffeic acid, phloretin, resveratrol, catechin, flavonoids, lignans, and curcuminoids, is considered an attractive approach to enhance their properties and functions. Accordingly, the glycosylation of cannabinoids, also known as terpeno-phenol compounds due to their phenolic moiety, has garnered significant attention in the scientific community. This interest has led to the development of various biotechnological glycosylation processes. These advancements have been further propelled by the increasing market demand and therapeutic potential of CBD and other hemp-derived cannabinoids. These processes involve either enzymatic in vitro glycosylation, in vivo glycosylation using fermentation with an external acceptor (e.g., CBD), or de novo biosynthesis from fermentation, which are typically catalyzed by uridine glycosyltransferases (Zipp et al., WO 2017053574 A1, Vitality Biopharma, Inc.; Schuetz et al., WO 2022099078 A1, Willow Biosciences Inc.; Milne et al., WO 2020239784 A1, Octarine Bio Ivs.; Sayre et al., U.S. Patent 20220267820 A1, Trait Biosciences). As a secondary metabolite in the plant tissue of Pinellia ternate, three cannabinoid glycosides, CBD-1'-O-^^-D-glucoside (3), CBD-1',3'-di-O-^^-D-glucoside (8), and CBN-1-O-^^-D-glucoside (13), were also identified by in vitro biotransformation, indicating that these cannabinoid glycosides are naturally occurring products (Tanaka et al., Plant Cell Reports 1996, 15, 819; Tanaka et al., J Nat Prod 1993, 56 (12), 2068). Given the stimulating biological, pharmacological, and physiochemical properties of phenolic glycosides, the chemical glycosylation of natural and non-natural phenolic compounds has been extensively investigated over the past several decades to identify ideal conditions for effective glycosylation (Jacobsson et al., Carbohydr Res 2006, 341, 1266; Yu et al., Acc Chem Res 2012, 45(8), 1227; Yang et al., Nat Prod Rep 2015, 32, 1331; Jensen et al., J Chem Soc, Perkin Trans 1, 2002, 2219; Wadouachi et al., Molecules 2011, 16, 3933). As a result, numerous new synthetic methods have been developed. These mature chemical tools for glycosylation enable the effective isolation of pure glycosides in high yield and can be adapted to optimize the properties, safety, efficacy of natural glycosides through efficient derivatization. However, the chemical synthesis of cannabinoid glycosides has not been as thoroughly explored as other natural and non-natural phenolic glycosides. A reported synthesis involved a mixture of C- and O-glucosides of CBN, ∆8-THC, and ∆9-THC using 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-^^-D- glucopyranosyl 2,2,2-trichloroacetimidate as a glucosyl donor and BF3• OEt2as a Lewis acid (Anindya et al., WO 2023053134 A1, Council of Scientific & Industrial Research). However, this synthetic strategy has limitations in its efficiency and broad applicability for synthesis of cannabinoid glycosides. Glucuronidation, similar to glycosylation, is an effective method to increase the aqueous solubility of natural products. Glucuronides, the most important class of phase II metabolites, are generated in vivo through the action of UDP-glucuronosyltransferases. Related to this, a study reported that specific human recombinant UDP-glucuronosyltransferases, which are responsible for the formation of Phase II cannabinoid glucuronide metabolites, have been identified (Mazur et al., Drug Metab Dispos 200937(7), 1496). The glucuronides have the potential to not only enhance pharmacological properties but also facilitate uptake and improve antioxidant properties. Additionally, glucuronide prodrugs can be used effectively to deliver bioactive molecules to their sites of action (Docampo et al., J Agric Food Chem 2017, 65(35), 7607). However, studies on the synthesis of cannabinoid glucuronide are limited. Two groups reported the synthesis of C-glucuronide of ∆8- and ∆9-THC using a glucosyl donor (methyl 1,2,3,4- tetra-O-acetyl-^^-D-glucuronate, 2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl-^^-D-glucuronic acid methyl ester trichloroacetimidate, or acetobromo-^^,^^-D-glucuronic acid methyl ester) in the presence of BF3• OEt2or Hg(CN)2(Yagen et al., J Am Chem Soc 1977, 99(19), 6444; Zehavi et al., Carbohydr Res 1981, 98(1), 143; Baek et al., Bull Korean Chem Soc 1991, 12(6), 604). However, these methods have proven synthetically unproductive due to low yield and have not been applied for the synthesis of other cannabinoids. Therefore, there is a high demand for efficient and broadly applicable chemical glycosylation and glucuronidation of CBD and other cannabinoids, considering the increasing importance of these compounds for potential applications in pharmaceuticals, consumer products, and nutraceuticals.

In another embodiment, the disclosure includes pharmaceutical composition comprising a cannabinoid glycoside and / or glucuronoside or intermediate compound synthesized by any of the methods described herein, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure belongs. Although any methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used in the practice or testing of the present disclosure, the preferred methods and materials are now described. All structures depicted herein, unless otherwise stated include all isomeric (e.g., enantiomeric, diastereomeric, and geometric (or conformational)) forms of the structure; for example, the R and S configurations for each asymmetric center, Z and E double bond isomers, and Z and E conformational isomers. Therefore, single stereochemical isomers as well as enantiomeric, diastereomeric, and geometric (or conformational) mixtures of the present compounds are within the scope of the disclosure. Unless otherwise stated, all tautomeric forms of the compounds of the disclosure are within the scope of the disclosure. Additionally, unless otherwise stated, structures depicted herein are also meant to include compounds that differ only in the presence of one or more isotopically enriched atoms. For example, compounds having the present structures including the replacement of hydrogen by deuterium or tritium, or the replacement of a carbon by a 13C- or 14C-enriched carbon are within the scope of this disclosure. Such compounds are useful, for example, as analytical tools, as probes in biological assays, or as therapeutic agents in accordance with the present disclosure. The term “stereoisomer” refers to a molecule that is an enantiomer, diastereomer or geometric isomer of a molecule. Stereoisomers, unlike structural isomers, do not differ with respect to the number and types of atoms in the molecule's structure but with respect to the spatial arrangement of the molecule's atoms. Examples of stereoisomers include the (+) and (-) forms of optically active molecules. As used herein, the term “cannabinoid” may also include different modified forms of a cannabinoid such as a methylated, acetylated, hydroxylated cannabinoids or cannabinoid carboxylic acids. Examples of cannabinoids are tetrahydrocannabinol, cannabidiol, cannabigerol, cannabichromene, cannabicyclol, cannabivarin, cannabielsoin, cannabicitran, cannabigerolic acid, cannabigerolic acid monomethylether, cannabigerol monomethylether, cannabigerovarinic acid, cannabigerovarin, cannabichromenic acid, cannabichromevarinic acid, cannabichromevarin, cannabidolic acid, cannabidiol monomethylether, cannabidiol-C4, cannabidivarinic acid, cannabidiorcol, delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinolic acid A, delta-9- tetrahydrocannabinolic acid B, delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinolic acid-C4, delta-9- tetrahydrocannabivarinic acid, delta-9- tetrahydrocannabivarin, delta-9- tetrahydrocannabiorcolic acid, delta-9-tetrahydrocannabiorcol, delta-7-cis-iso-tetrahydrocannabivarin, delta-8-tetrahydrocannabiniolic acid, delta-8- tetrahydrocannabinol, cannabicyclolic acid, cannabicylovarin, cannabielsoic acid A, cannabielsoic acid B, cannabinolic acid, cannabinol methyl ether, cannabinol-C4, cannabinol-C2, cannabiorcol, 10-ethoxy-9-hydroxy-delta-6a-tetrahydrocannabinol, 8,9-dihydroxy-delta-6a- tetrahydrocannabinol, cannabitriolvarin, ethoxy-cannabitriolvarin, dehydrocannabifuran, cannabifuran, cannabichromanon, cannabicitran, 10-oxo-delta-6a-tetrahydrocannabinol, delta-9- cis- tetrahydrocannabinol, 3, 4, 5, 6-tetrahydro-7-hydroxy-alpha-alpha-2-trimethyl-9-n- propyl-2, 6-methano-2H-1-benzoxocin-5-methanol-cannabiripsol, trihydroxy-delta-9- tetrahydrocannabinol, and cannabinol. As used herein, an ^^-glycosidic bond is formed when two carbons have the same stereochemistry, whereas a β-glycosidic bond occurs when the two carbons have different stereochemistry. The term “glucopyranoside” is used for naming molecules and is shorthand for a β-D- glucose attached through the hydroxyl at the 1-position (the anomeric carbon) of the glucose to the aglycone. The term “aglycone” is used in the present application to refer to the non-glycosidic portion of a glycoside compound. A “glycoside” is a molecule that contains a sugar molecule attached to another functional group. A “glucuronide,” also known as glucuronoside, is any compound produced by linking glucuronic acid to another substance via a glycosidic bond. The glucuronides belong to the glycosides. As such, in come cases reference to a glycosides can further encompass a glucuronoside. A cannabinoid may include one or more conjugate sites or conjugation sites that can bind to a glycosyl group. As used herein “conjugate site” or “conjugation site” mean a position on a cannabinoid compound that may covalently bind to a glycosyl group, for example through an ^^- or β-glycosidic bond. Exemplary conjugation sites can be shown below in Table B: The term “compound,” or “compound of the disclosure” includes all solvates, complexes, polymorphs, radiolabeled derivatives, tautomers, stereoisomers, and optical isomers of the cannabinoid glycosides and / or glucuronoside compounds generally described herein, and salts thereof, unless otherwise specified. Notably, if the compound is anionic, or has a functional group which may be anionic (e.g., —COOH may be —COO−), then a salt may be formed with a suitable cation. Examples of suitable inorganic cations include, but are not limited to, alkali metal ions such as Na+and K+, alkaline earth cations such as Ca2+and Mg2+, and other cations such as Al3+. Examples of suitable organic cations include, but are not limited to, ammonium ion (i.e., NH4+) and substituted ammonium ions (e.g., NH3R+, NH2R2+, NHR3+, NR4+). Examples of some suitable substituted ammonium ions are those derived from: ethylamine, diethylamine, dicyclohexylamine, triethylamine, butylamine, ethylenediamine, ethanolamine, diethanolamine, piperazine, benzylamine, phenylbenzylamine, choline, meglumine, and tromethamine, as well as amino acids, such as histidine, lysine and arginine. An example of a common quaternary ammonium ion is N(CH3)4+. It may be convenient or desirable to prepare, purify, and / or handle a corresponding solvate of the active compound. The term “solvate” is used herein in the conventional sense to refer to a complex of solute (e.g., active compound, salt of active compound) and solvent. If the solvent is water, the solvate may be conveniently referred to as a hydrate, for example, a mono-hydrate, a di-hydrate, a tri-hydrate, etc. It may be convenient or desirable to prepare, purify, and / or handle the active compound in a chemically protected form. The term “chemically protected form,” as used herein, pertains to a compound in which one or more reactive functional groups are protected from undesirable chemical reactions, that is, are in the form of a protected or protecting group (also known as a masked or masking group or a blocked or blocking group). By protecting a reactive functional group, reactions involving other unprotected reactive functional groups can be performed, without affecting the protected group; the protecting group may be removed, usually in a subsequent step, without substantially affecting the remainder of the molecule. See, for example, “Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis” (T. Green and P. Wuts; 3rd Edition; John Wiley and Sons, 1999). For example, a hydroxy group may be protected as an ether (—OR) or an ester (—OC(═O)R), for example, as: a t-butyl ether; a benzyl, benzhydryl (diphenylmethyl), or trityl (triphenylmethyl)ether; a trimethylsilyl or t-butyldimethylsilyl ether; or an acetyl ester (— OC(═O)CH3, —OAc). For example, an aldehyde or ketone group may be protected as an acetal or ketal, respectively, in which the carbonyl group (>C═O) is converted to a diether (>C(OR)2), by reaction with, for example, a primary alcohol. The aldehyde or ketone group is readily regenerated by hydrolysis using a large excess of water in the presence of acid. For example, an amine group may be protected, for example, as an amide or a urethane, for example, as: a methyl amide (—NHCO—CH3); a benzyloxy amide (—NHCO—OCH2C6H5, —NH-Cbz); as a t-butoxy amide (—NHCO—OC(CH3)3, —NH-Boc); a 2-biphenyl-2-propoxy amide (—NHCO—OC(CH3)2C6H4C6H5, —NH-Bpoc), as a 9-fluorenylmethoxy amide (—NH- Fmoc), as a 6-nitroveratryloxy amide (—NH-Nvoc), as a 2-trimethylsilylethyloxy amide (—NH- Teoc), as a 2,2,2-trichloroethyloxy amide (—NH-Troc), as an allyloxy amide (—NH-Alloc), as a 2(-phenylsulphonyl)ethyloxy amide (—NH-Psec); or, in suitable cases, as an N-oxide (>NO). For example, a carboxylic acid group may be protected as an ester for example, as: a C1-7alkyl ester (e.g., a methyl ester; a t-butyl ester); a C1-7 haloalkyl ester (e.g., a C1-7 trihaloalkyl ester); a triC1- 7 alkylsilyl-C1-7 alkyl ester; or a C5-20 aryl-C1-7 alkyl ester (e.g., a benzyl ester; a nitrobenzyl ester); or as an amide, for example, as a methyl amide. An “R-group” or “substituent” refers to a single atom (for example, a halogen atom) or a group of two or more atoms that are covalently bonded to each other, which are covalently bonded to an atom or atoms in a molecule to satisfy the valency requirements of the atom or atoms of the molecule, typically in place of a hydrogen atom. The term “linear alkane” is used to refer to an alkane in which each carbon atom is bound to a maximum of two carbon atoms. In certain embodiments, it may be convenient or desirable to prepare, purify, and / or handle the active compound in the form of a prodrug. The term “prodrug,” as used herein, pertains to a compound which, when metabolized (e.g., in vivo), yields the desired active compound, for example through the removal of a glycosyl group reconstituting the native cannabinoid compound. Typically, the prodrug is inactive, or less active than the active compound, but may provide advantageous handling, administration, or metabolic properties. “Pharmaceutical compositions” are compositions that include an amount (for example, a unit dosage) of one or more of the disclosed compounds together with one or more non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable additives, including carriers, diluents, and / or adjuvants, and optionally other biologically active ingredients. Such pharmaceutical compositions can be prepared by standard pharmaceutical Formulation techniques such as those disclosed in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, Mack Publishing Co, Easton, Pa. (19th Edition). The terms “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to salts or esters prepared by conventional means that include salts, e.g, of inorganic and organic acids, including but not limited to hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, methanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, malic acid, acetic acid, oxalic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, lactic acid, fumaric acid, succinic acid, maleic acid, salicylic acid, benzoic acid, phenylacetic acid, mandelic acid, and the like. For therapeutic use, salts of the compounds are those wherein the counter-ion is pharmaceutically acceptable. However, salts of acids and bases which are non-pharmaceutically acceptable may also find use, for example, in the preparation or purification of a pharmaceutically acceptable compound. The pharmaceutically acceptable acid and base addition salts as mentioned above are meant to comprise the therapeutically active non-toxic acid and base addition salt forms which the compounds can form. The pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts can conveniently be obtained by treating the base form with such appropriate acid. Appropriate acids comprise, for example, inorganic acids such as hydrohalic acids, e.g. hydrochloric or hydrobromic acid, sulfuric, nitric, phosphoric and the like acids; or organic acids such as, for example, acetic, propanoic, hydroxyacetic, lactic, pyruvic, oxalic (i.e. ethanedioic), malonic, succinic (i.e. butanedioic acid), maleic, fumaric, malic (i.e. hydroxybutanedioic acid), tartaric, citric, methanesulfonic, ethanesulfonic, benzenesulfonic, p-toluenesulfonic, cyclamic, salicylic, p-aminosalicylic, pamoic, and like acids. Conversely, these salt forms can be converted into the free base form by treatment with an appropriate base. The compounds containing an acidic proton may also be converted into their non-toxic metal or amine addition salt forms by treatment with appropriate organic and inorganic bases. Appropriate base salt forms comprise, for example, the ammonium salts, the alkali and earth alkaline metal salts, e.g. the lithium, sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium salts and the like, salts with organic bases, e.g. the benzathine, N-methyl-D-glucamine, hydrabamine salts, and salts with amino acids such as, for example, arginine, lysine, and the like. Some of the compounds described herein may also exist in their tautomeric form. The terms “approximately” and “about” refer to a quantity, level, value, or amount that varies by as much as 30%, or in another embodiment by as much as 20%, and in a third embodiment by as much as 10% to a reference quantity, level, value, or amount. As used herein, the singular form “a,” “an,” and “the” include plural references unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. The inventive technology may further include cannabinoid glycosides and / or glucuronosides exhibit increase solubility. In one preferred embodiment, the disclosure may include a pharmaceutical composition as an active ingredient an effective amount or dose of one or more of the cannabinoid glycosides and / or glucuronosides of the disclosure. In some instances, the active ingredient may be provided together with pharmaceutically tolerable adjuvants and / or excipients in the pharmaceutical composition. Such pharmaceutical composition may optionally be in combination with one or more further activeingredients. In one embodiment, one of the aforementioned the cannabinoid glycosides and / or glucuronosides of the disclosure is a prodrug, whereby a sugar promoiety may be removed after administration and / or uptake of a therapeutically effective amount, or effective dose, or dose. The terms “therapeutically effective amount” or “effective dose” or “dose” are interchangeably used herein and denote an amount of the pharmaceutical compound having a prophylactically or therapeutically relevant effect on a disease or pathological conditions, i.e. which causes in a tissue, system, animal or human a biological or medical response which is sought or desired, for example, by a researcher or physician. Pharmaceutical Formulations can be administered in the form of dosage units which comprise a predetermined amount of active ingredient per dosage unit. The concentration of the prophylactically or therapeutically active ingredient in the Formulation may vary from about 0.1 to 100 wt %. Preferably, a cannabinoid glycoside and / or glucuronoside of the disclosure or the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are administered in doses of approximately 0.5 to 1000 mg, more preferably between .1mg and 1000mg, 1 and 700 mg, and most preferably 5 and 100 mg per dose unit. Generally, such a dose range is appropriate for total daily incorporation. In other terms, the daily dose is preferably between approximately 0.02 and 100 mg / kg of body weight. The specific dose for each patient depends, however, on a wide variety of factors as already described in the present specification (e.g. depending on the condition treated, the method of administration and the age, weight, and condition of the patient). Preferred dosage unit Formulations are those which comprise a daily dose or part-dose, as indicated above, or a corresponding fraction thereof of an active ingredient. Furthermore, pharmaceutical Formulations of this type can be prepared using a process which is generally known in the pharmaceutical art. As used herein, a consumer product, including a food additive, a beverage additive as well as nutraceutical compositions are described by Sayre et al., in U.S. Application No.16 / 110,954.

Further, the effective dose can vary depending upon factors such as the mode of delivery, gender, age, and other conditions of the patient, as well as the extent or progression of the disease. The compounds may be provided alone, in a mixture containing two or more of the compounds, or in combination with other medications or treatment modalities. As used herein the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. Thus, for example, reference to “a compound” includes a plurality of such compounds, and reference to “the method” includes reference to one or more methods, method steps, and equivalents thereof known to those skilled in the art, and so forth. Similarly, the word “or” is intended to include “and” unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Hence “comprising A or B” means including A, or B, or A and B. Furthermore, the use of the term “including,” as well as other related forms, such as “includes” and “included,” is not limiting. The term “about” as used herein is a flexible word with a meaning similar to “approximately” or “nearly.” The term “about” indicates that exactitude is not claimed, but rather a contemplated variation. Thus, as used herein, the term “about” means within 1 or 2 standard deviations from the specifically recited value, or ± a range of up to 20%, up to 15%, up to 10%, up to 5%, or up to 4%, 3%, 2%, or 1 % compared to the specifically recited value. EXAMPLES Chemical Synthesis of CBD-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside. In one embodiment of the current disclosure, the present inventors demonstrated the chemical synthesis of CBD-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside (3) using ^^-glucosyl iodide 6. Specifically, a method for preparing CBD-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside (3) is provided herein, which employs a reactive per-O-TMS (trimethyl silyl) ^^-glucosyl iodide 6, known as a super armed glucosyl donor, under phase transfer catalyst (PTC) conditions in basic biphasic systems. Scheme 1 illustrates a detailed reaction sequence. Initially, ^^-glucosyl iodide 6 is generated from readily available per-O-TMS glucose 4 by reaction with iodotrimethylsilane (TMSI) following a known procedure (Gervay- Hague et al., Acc Chem Res 2016, 49, 35). The complete conversion of ^^-iodide 5 to ^^-iodide 6 is confirmed by1H NMR analysis of an aliquot of the mixture. The in situ generated ^^-glucosyl iodide 6 in dichloromethane (DCM) is then directly cannulated into a mixture of CBD, benzyltriethylammonium chloride (BETAC), water, and DCM, followed by the addition of NaOH. Upon completion, the crude glycoside is purified by silica gel column chromatography to yield O- TMS CBD-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside 2. During the purification, the TMS group in the primary hydroxyl at the C-6 position of glucose can be deprotected, leading to 2b. The final global deprotection of TMS groups using acetic acid in methanol provides CBD-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside (3). Other deprotection conditions such as HCl solution in dioxane (or isopropyl acetate), K2CO3in methanol, or methanol only can also be successfully used to afford CBD-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside (3) (Examples 1–2).
[0005] Scheme 1. Preparation of CBD-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside (3) in small scale using in situ generated ^^-glucosyl iodide 6 However, this method is not reproducible for a multi-gram scale reaction due to the long addition time of reactive ^^-glucosyl iodide 6. During the addition, it appears that ^^-glucosyl iodide 6 partly deteriorates, resulting in incomplete conversion. A more robust and reproducible method is provided in Scheme 2, where instead of adding reactive ^^-glucosyl iodide 6, a mixture of CBD, BETAC, water, and DCM is added into a solution of ^^-glucosyl iodide 6 in DCM under a nitrogen atmosphere. The reverse addition procedure proceeds smoothly to afford O-TMS CBD-1’-O-^^-D- glucoside 2 in good yield. In this process, a small amount of O-TMS CBD-1’,3’-di-O-^^-D- glucoside (7) is also produced. After deprotection of TMS groups in methanol, CBD-1’-O-^^-D- glucoside (3) is successfully prepared on a multi-gram scale, in addition to CBD-1’,3’-di-O-^^-D- glucoside (8) (Example 3). Scheme 2. Preparation of CBD-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside (3) and CBD-1’,3’-di-O-^^-D-glucoside (8) in multi-gram scale using in situ generated ^^-glycosyl iodide 6 The glycosylation proceeds in a ^^-selective fashion, and the ^^-glycosidic linkage is confirmed by the coupling constant (3J = 7.2 Hz) of the anomeric proton in per-O-TMS CBD-1’- O-^^-D-glucoside 2a (FIG 1). The glycosylation of CBD by fermenting Pichia pastoris harboring a plasmid encoding tobacco-derived glycosyltransferase (NtGT4) also provides CBD-1’-O-^^-D- glucoside (3) and CBD-1’,3’-di-O-^^-D-glucoside (8) (Sayre et al., WO 2019014395 A1 and Huynh et al., WO 2023240221 A2, Trait Biosciences) (Scheme 3). The1H NMR spectra of fermentative-derived CBD glucosides are identical to that of synthetic glycosides 3 and 8, supporting the conclusion that both chemical and fermentative glycosylation of CBD result in a ^^- glycosidic bond. (FIGS 2-3). (NtGT4) Synthesis of CBD-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside (9) using in situ anomerization strategy. In one embodiment of the current disclosure, the present inventors demonstrated the chemical synthesis of CBD-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside utilizing in situ anomerization. The chemical glycosylation method can be adjusted to synthesize CBD-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside (9) by applying an in situ anomerization strategy (Lam et al., Org Lett 2003, 5 (22), 4129; Schombs et al., J Org Chem 2010, 75 (15), 4891). As depicted in Scheme 4, ^^-glucosyl iodide 6 undergoes in situ anomerization by the addition of NaI or tetrabutylammonium iodide (TBAI), leading to reactive ^^-glucosyl iodide 5. This compound then undergoes a nucleophilic attack by CBD under biphasic conditions to produce CBD-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside (9) after the deprotection of TMS groups. Scheme 4. Preparation of CBD-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside (9) via in situ anomerization Synthesis of CBD-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside. In one embodiment of the current disclosure, the present inventors demonstrated the chemical synthesis of CBD-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside (3) using acetobromo-^^-D-glucose (10). Scheme 5 illustrates the glucosylation of CBD with commercially available acetobromo-^^-D-glucose (10). Using a less reactive glucosyl donor 10 instead of ^^-glucosyl iodide 6 under identical conditions results in CBD-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside (3) in two steps, albeit with a low yield (Pathway A). The acetate protected glycoside 11 undergoes a one-pot glucosylation by the addition of methanol to yield CBD-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside (3), as the acetate groups are removed under the conditions (Pathway B). Scheme 5. Preparation of CBD-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside (3) using acetobromo-^^-D-glucose (10) as a glycosyl donor Synthesis of CBN-glycoside variants. In one embodiment of the current disclosure, the present inventors demonstrated the chemical synthesis of CBN-1-O-^^-D-glucoside (13), CBN-1-O-^^-D-glucoside (14) and CBN-1- O-^^-isomaltoside (16). When the chemical glycosylation strategy is applied using either ^^- glucosyl iodide 6 or ^^-isomaltosyl iodide 15 to CBN (12), both CBN-1-O-^^-D-glucoside (13) and CBN-1-O-^^-isomaltoside (16) are respectively obtained (Scheme 6, Examples 4–5, FIG 4). During the glycosylation process of CBN with ^^-glucosyl iodide 6, CBN-1-O-^^-D-glucoside (14), which has an ^^-glycosidic bond, is also formed as a minor product (FIG. 5). This result highlights the utility of the glycosylation protocol in the synthesis of diverse cannabinoid glycosides. Scheme 6. Preparation of CBN-1-O-^^-D-glucoside (13) and its ^^–anomer 14 and CBN-1-O-^^-isomaltoside (16) Synthesis of CBN-1-O-^^-D-glycoside. In one of the current disclosure, the present inventors demonstrated the chemical synthesis 1-O-^^-D-glycoside (13) using ^^-D-glucose pentaacetate (17). Scheme 7 presents an alternative stereoselective synthesis of CBN-1-O-^^-D-glucoside (13) using readily available ^^-D-glucose pentaacetate (17) as a glucosyl donor (Example 6, FIG. 6). In this process, the formation of the glucoside is mediated by BF3 • OEt2. The selective formation of the ^^- glucosidic linkage is governed by a mechanism known as neighboring group in which the acyl group at the C-2 position of the sugar acts as a neighboring group and stabilizes a transient oxocarbenium ion. The1H NMR spectrum is identical to that obtained using ^^-glucosyl iodide 6 (Scheme 6, Example 4, FIG 6). Besides BF3• OEt2, glucosyl donor 17 can be activated by other Lewis acids, including FeCl3, TMSOTf, AgOTf, or Ag2O. Scheme 7. Glycosylation of CBN using ^^-D-glucose pentaacetate (17) Synthesis of CBN di- and tri-glycosides. In one embodiment of the current disclosure, the present inventors demonstrated the chemical synthesis of CBN di- and tri-glycosides. The glycosylation protocol's scope is extended to synthesize CBN di- and tri-glycosides 18–21 with readily available glycosyl donors 22–25 (Table 1, Examples 7–10). TABLE 1. CBN di- and tri-glycosides 16–20 from glycosyl donors 21–25 Yield Compound HPLC Product Glycosyl donor (two # (tR,min) steps) 18 57% 4.54 19 32% 4.59 20 44% 4.52 21 8% 4.34 Overview of the Synthesis of Cannabinoid Glucuronides. The study of drug and natural product metabolites contributes to our understanding of their toxicity, safety assessment, and biological activity. Glucuronides, a type of natural metabolite, are enzymatically formed during phase II metabolism in the liver. The glucuronidation of natural products (or aglycones) has been demonstrated to offer various benefits. These include enhanced solubility, which is particularly beneficial for hydrophobic drugs. Additionally, many glucuronides are pharmacologically active and can function as prodrugs. (Wadouachi et al., Molecules 2011, 16 (5), 3933; Stachulski et al., Nat Prod Rep 1998, 15, 173; Graaf et al., Curr Pharm Des 2002, 8 (15) 1391). CBD and CBN glucuronides, metabolites of CBD and CBN respectively, are formed by conjugating these cannabinoids with glucuronic acid. The chemical synthesis of these cannabinoid glucuronides, which could potentially benefit human health, is a relatively unexplored field (Zehavi et al., Chem Pharm Bull 1979, 27 (12), 3009; Watanabe et al., Carbohydrate Research, 1981, 98, 143). Synthesis of CBN-1-O-^^-D-glucuronide. In one embodiment of the current disclosure, the present inventors demonstrated the chemical synthesis of CBN-1-O-^^-D-glucuronide (27) and its salt 28. Scheme 8 outlines a synthetic strategy for CBN-1-O-^^-D-glucuronide (27). Adapting the Lewis acid-catalyzed glycosylation method used in Scheme 7, glucuronide 27 is prepared using glucuronide donor 26 in a two-step process involving glucuronidation and ester hydrolysis. Glucuronide 27 can then be converted into various salt forms. Scheme 8. Preparation of CBN-1-O-^^-D-glucuronide (27) and its salt 28 Synthesis of CBD-1’-O-^^-D-glucuronide. In one embodiment of the current disclosure, the present inventors demonstrated the chemical synthesis of CBD-1’-O-^^-D-glucuronide (32) and its salt 33. Scheme 9 presents a synthetic strategy for CBD-1’-O-^^-D-glucuronide (32). Employing the strategy used for the glucosylation of CBD (Schemes 1–2), O-TMS glucuronate iodide 30 is generated by treating per- O-TMS glucuronate 29 with TMSI. This is then reacted with CBD to yield CBD-1’-O-^^-D- glucuronide (32) after the deprotection of TMS groups. This can be converted to various salt forms to yield 33 using standard methods (Example 11). The glycosylation and glucuronidation methods detailed in Schemes 1–9, which utilize CBD and CBN as glycosylation and glucuronidation acceptors, can be adapted for the synthesis of glucosides and glucuronides of other cannabinoids, including CBG, CBC, THCV, THC, and others (See TABLE B: Exemplary Cannabinoid Glycosylation and Glucuronidation Sites). Scheme 10. Preparation of CBG-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside (36) and CBC-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside (37) using in situ generated ^^-glycosyl iodide 6 For instance, CBG and CBC, which contain a gem-dimethyl-substituted isoprenyl group, can be converted into the corresponding glycosides 36 and 37 under basic conditions using α- glucosyl iodide 6 in a manner similar to that described in Schemes 1–2 (Scheme 10). In contrast, for the preparation of THCV or THC glycosides 40 and 41, either α-glucosyl iodide 6 or β-D- glucose pentaacetate (17) can be employed as glucosyl donors, following procedures outlined in Schemes 1–2 and 7 (Scheme 11). Scheme 11. Preparation of THCV-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside (40) and THC-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside (41) using in situ generated ^^-glycosyl iodide 6 or ^^-D-glucose pentaacetate (17) Similarly, the synthesis of glucuronides of other cannabinoids can be achieved using the methods depicted in Schemes 8–9. For example, CBG and CBC can be converted into the corresponding glucuronides 42 and 43 under basic conditions with O-TMS glucuronate iodide 30 as the glucuronide donor (Scheme 12). Meanwhile, THCV and THC can be transformed into their respective glucuronides 44 and 45 using either O-TMS glucuronate iodide 30 or commercially available glucuronide donor 26, following similar conditions described in Schemes 8–9 (Scheme 13).

[0006] Scheme 13. Preparation of THCV-1-O-^^-D-glucuronide (44) and THC-1-O-^^-D-glucuronide (45) Materials and Methods. All solvents and reagents were purchased from commercial sources and used without further purification unless otherwise noted. Reactions were monitored by TLC (thin layer chromatography) on 0.25 mm silica gel 60 F254 plates from MilliporeSigma using UV light, basic aqueous potassium permanganate (KMnO4), or iodine staining as the visualizing agent. EMD Millipore silica gel (60 Å, particle size 63–200 µm) was used for column chromatography. All NMR spectra were recorded at 300 K on Varian 300 MHz Mercury Plus spectrometer and were calibrated using residual undeuterated solvent as an internal reference. NMR data were processed using Mnova NMR processing software (Mestrelab Research S.L.). Analytical HPLC were performed on a Shimadzu 2050C using a Raptor ARC-18 column (100 mm x 4.6 mm x 5 µm) using a gradient with (1) acetonitrile with 0.1% formic acid and (2) water with 0.1% formic acid and 5 mM ammonium formate at a flow rate of 1.5 mL / min and detection was monitored at 220 nm. Example 1. Per-O-TMS ^^-D-glucose 4 This step was performed by adapting the literature procedures with modification (Bhat et al., Org Lett 2001, 3 (13), 2081–2084; and Wang et al., Carbohyd Res 2016, 427, 1–5; each of these is cited in the references). To a mixture of ^^-D-glucose (25.0 g, 0.139 mol) in DMF (400 mL) was treated with NEt3(107 mL, 0.763 mol) at 0 ˚C, followed by TMSCl (97 mL, 0.763 mol) at the same temperature. After stirring at rt over 12 h, the mixture was poured into ice-cold water (1000 mL) and the product portion was extracted with heptane (1200 mL). The organic layer separated, washed with satd. Na2SO4 solution (200 mL), brine (200 mL), dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated in vacuo to give crude product as yellow oil (69.93 g, 93%), which was used for the next step without purification. Example 2. Preparation of CBD-1’-O-^^-D-glucoside (3) Step A: Glycosylation of CBD using in situ generated TMS-protected α-D-glucose iodide 6. To a solution of TMS-protected glucose 4 (1858 mg, 3.43 mmol) in DCM (6.4 mL) was treated with TMSI (471 μL, 2.54 mmol) and the mixture was stirred at rt for 20 min. The complete conversion of ^^-iodide 5 to ^^-iodide 6 was determined by1H NMR analysis of the aliquot (sample preparation: about 20–40 μL of the aliquot taken from the mixture using 1 mL disposal syringe was dissolved in CDCl3). In a separate vial, CBD (400 mg, 1.27 mmol) and benzyltriethylammonium chloride (BTEAC) (434 mg, 1.91 mmol) were placed, and DCM (6.4 mL) and water (3 mL) were added. Then, the above TMS-protected ^^-iodide 7 in DCM was transferred into the vial containing CBD and BTEAC via a syringe. Subsequently, a solution of NaOH (305 mg, 7.63 mmol) in water (3 mL) was added. The mixture was flushed with argon and stirred at rt overnight. Upon completion, the mixture was diluted with DCM and the organic layer was separated. After washing with brine, the organic layer was dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude was triturated with 10% EtOAc in hexane (10 mL X 3), filtered, washed (10% EtOAc in hexane), and concentrated in vacuo to give crude material. Purification of the crude by silica gel column chromatography (SiO25 g; hexane to 50% EtOAc in hexane) furnished 2a (657 mg, 68%) and 2b (110 mg, 12%). 2a:1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 6.44 (s, 2H), 5.97 (s, 1H), 5.56 (s, 1H), 4.57 (d, J = 7.2 Hz, 1H), 4.47 (s, 1H), 4.37 (s, 1H), 4.15 (d, J = 10.3 Hz, 1H), 3.73–3.64 (m, 2H), 3.59 (m, 1H), 3.50 – 3.37 (m, 2H), 3.07 (d, J = 9.1 Hz, 1H), 2.61–2.37 (m, 3H), 2.19 (s, 1H), 2.04 (d, J = 17.6 Hz, 1H), 1.85–1.71(m, 5H), 1.66 (s, 3H), 1.64 – 1.46 (m, 2H), 1.40–1.20 (m, 4H), 0.94 – 0.78 (m, 3H), 0.23 – 0.05 (m, 36H). Step B: Deprotection of TMS groups. To a solution of TMS protected CBD-1’-O-^^-D- glucoside 2a (294 mg, 0.38 mmol) in MeOH (5.5 mL) was added AcOH (220 μL, 3.84 mmol). After stirring for 4 h, the mixture was concentrated in vacuo and the residual acetic acid was removed by azeotrope with toluene (5 mL X 4).
