Abstract
DOPAC (3,4-Dihydroxyphenylacetic acid) is an intermediate neural metabolite in the cycle of catecholamines,a concretely in the metabolic reaction of dopamine (DA) to produce homovanillic acid (HVA), a substance that being present in urine in a large quantity, is indicative of health problems. In this work, we present a rotational study to explore the conformational preferences of DOPAC. It has been brought into gas phase avoiding decomposition by laser ablation LA of the solid sample, and the conformers present in the supersonic expansion have been probed by CP-FTMW spectroscopy.b As we will show, several conformers have been detected and characterized. All the data obtained is presented in this communication.
