Abstract
The autoxidation of nine catecholamines and two catechols as a function of pH was studied. The reaction rate constants of the distinct charged particles, in which catechol(amine)s can appear, are proved to be independent of pH. Autoxidation appears to be a feasible system for the acquisition of data useful for structure (re)activity relationships.
