Norepinephrine Synthesis
So recently I have successfully synthesized Serotonin! With this success I thought it might be fun to make some other neurotransmitters. Right now
Dopamine is my next product, which shouldn't be to hard to do. I think I got the idea on how to do that. Just a Decarboxylation of L-DOPA and that
should be very easy. But then I realized that with the Dopamine I could also use it to make Norepinephrine. I'm still a very nooby chemist and thought
I'd ask for help on this wonderful forum. So my question is what's the best way to add an OH to the Dopamine to make Norepinephrine. If I had to guess
it shouldn't be that hard. But I honestly have no idea. If anyone can give some details on how I can do this or point me to something that would help
I'd be very grateful!
Hope you're all having a wonderful week!

Nobody replied for ages, so here's a total Noob assessment :-
