The routes leading to the formation of the most prominent fragment ion [C 15 H 19 O 2 ] + ( m/e 231) in the cannabinoid Δ 1(6) tetrahydrocannabinol were investigated with the aid of deuterium labelled compounds. A previously proposed mechanism for the two‐step process could be confirmed, but the mechanism for the one‐step route had to be revised.
