Abstract
A prenyl quinoline alkaloid (-)-preorixine was isolated from the stems of Orixa japonica (Rutaceae) and its structure was elucidated to be - butyl)-2,4-dimethoxy-7,8-methylenedioxyquinoline. (-)-Preorixine is po stulated as a biosynthetic key intermediate of (+)-orixine and related compounds.
