The synthesis of 8-methoxy-3-(methoxycarbonyl)-6,7-dimethyl-2-(methylamino)quinoxaline is described.The synthesized compound appeared to be identical with the product obtained by degradation of the irradiation product of lumichrome.From this the conclusion is drawn that the irradiation product of lumichrome in water is 9-hydoxylumichrome.
