Abstract
The absolute configuration of biologically active (-)-[alpha]-methyl-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine has been elucidated to be L- or S-configuration by the chemical correlation with (+)-[alpha]-methylaspartic acid, whose absolute configuration was confirmed in the previous report. Preliminary examinations using racemic compounds were also described.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
