N-Acyldopamines (NADAs), which are present in mammalian nervous tissues, exhibit interesting biological and pharmacological properties. In the present study, a homologous series of NADAs with varying acyl chains (n= 12–20) have been synthesized and characterized. Differential scanning calorimetric studies show that in the dry state the transition temperatures, enthalpies, and entropies of NADAs exhibit odd–even alternation ...
