Special attention was paid to the effect of hydroxyl substitution, due to its importance on the biological activity of these compounds. Their conformational preferences were found to be determined mainly by the orientation of the hydroxylic groups at C(7) and within the catechol moiety, leading to the occurrence of distinct conformers in the solid state. A complete assignment of the experimental spectra was carried out for these molecules, in the light of their most stable conformers and the corresponding predicted vibrational pattern. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/45061 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.saa.2013.01.038 10.1016/j.saa.2013.01.038 |
