Description

Ravenine is a quinoline alkaloid of the 2-quinolone group. Systematic name: 1-methyl-4-[(3-methyl-2-buten-1-yl)oxy]-2(1H)-quinolinone. In the catalog, the position is labeled “Predatory” - this is a machine translation error of the English word, which is consonant with the name Ravenine. The molecule is built on a 2-quinolone core with a methyl group at the nitrogen atom and a prenyl (3-methyl-2-butenyl) residue attached via oxygen at position 4.

Natural spring

The alkaloid is isolated from the root bark of the ash tree (Dictamnus dasycarpus). Quinolone alkaloids with prenyl substituents are characteristic of the rue family (Rutaceae), which includes both the genus Dictamnus and the genus Ravenia, which gives the substance its name. Related 2-quinolone alkaloids have been described from the leaves of Ravenia spectabilis - atanine, oligophiline, iso-oligophiline, ravanoline and arborinine.

Application

• standard sample for chromatographic and mass spectrometric analysis of rue alkaloids
• object of phytochemical research and work on the cytotoxicity of plant extracts
• reference compound in the study of prenylated quinolones

Storage and handling

Research reagent. Store in a tightly closed container in a dry, shaded place; the prenyl ester moiety is sensitive to acidic conditions. The hazard classification for the connection has not been established, therefore general measures are used: gloves, safety glasses, working with local exhaust, avoiding dust and contact with skin.
