US Patent 10933008 Silicon-based cannabidiol derivatives and compositions thereof

Silicon-based cannabidiol derivatives and methods for their synthesis are provided, in which the derivatives contain a cannabidiol molecule and at least one silicon-based group containing Si—O—Si bonds. The derivatives are useful in cosmetic and topical compositions, have potential beneficial topical properties, and enhance solubility and compatibility in cosmetic formulations containing the silicon-based materials. Silicone elastomers infused with compositions containing the silicon-based cannabidiol derivatives and trisiloxanes are also provided.
