Betaines formed by dianisyltellurium oxide oxidation of N,N-dialkyldopamines are identical to the products formed by tyrosinase oxidation of N,N-dialkyltyramines or N,N-dialkyldopamines and provide evidence that tyrosinase does not act as a tyrosine hydroxylase; oxidations of higher homologues of N,N-diethyldopamine are also described.
