DL-3,4-DIHYDROXYMANDELIC ACID Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

White Crystalline Solid

Uses

DL-3,4-Dihydroxymandelic acid was used in the simultaneous analysis of 4-hydroxy-3-methoxymandelic acid and 4-hydroxy- 3-methoxyphenylacetic acid in urine. It was also used to study the changes in body temperature.

Uses

DL-3,4-DihydroxyMandelic acid has been a useful synthetic intermediate.

Definition

ChEBI: 3,4-dihydroxymandelic acid is a catechol that is the 3,4-dihydroxy derivative of mandelic acid; a metabolite of L-dopa. It has a role as an antioxidant, a drug metabolite, a human metabolite and a mouse metabolite. It is a 2-hydroxy monocarboxylic acid and a member of catechols. It is functionally related to a mandelic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a 3,4-dihydroxymandelate.

General Description

Metabolite of norepinephrine.
