Abstract
The synthesis of N-acetyl-1,2-didehydrodopamine (6; N-acetyl-3,4-dihydroxystyrylamine) was accomplished by demethylation of N-acetyl-3,4-dimethoxystyrylamine (5), formed by sequential treatment of 3,4-dimethoxycinnamic acid (1) with thionyl chloride, sodium azide, heat and methyl magnesium bromide.Keywords
