The phenolic oxidation of L-tyrosine derivatives by electrolysis and zinc reduction produced the coupling products leading to isodityrosine and dityrosine.The oxidation mode could be controlled by altering halogen substituents (Br or I) at two ortho positions of phenol groups.Additionally, this methodology was applied to 4-hydroxy-D-phenylglycine derivatives, providing the correspoinding oxidative products.
