N-Acetyldopamine is the organic compound with the formula CH3C(O)NHCH2CH2C6H3(OH)2. It is the N-acetylated derivative of dopamine. This compound is a reactive intermediate in sclerotization, the process by which insect cuticles are formed by hardening molecular precursors. The catechol substituent is susceptible to redox and crosslinking.[2][3]
