The EI spectrum (LKB 3000 spectrometer, 70eV) exhibited a parent ion at m/z 223 (intensity 1% of base peak) and only 2 major fragment ions, one at 180 (loss of C3H7, intensity 66% of base peak) and the other at 166 (loss of C4H9, base peak). This material has been referred to in ref. 14 as GTX-223, since it appeared to be related structurally to gephyrotoxin (GTX)13. Biosynthesis of most dendrobatid alkaloids appears likely to derive from a precursor 2,6-disubstituted piperidine which has odd numbers of carbons in both substituents; cf. histrionicotoxins, pumiliotoxin-C, gephyrotoxin. Because of this, an alternative structure for GTX-223AB, viz. 3-propyl-5-butylindolizidine5, was considered quite unlikely since it would derive from a 2,6-disubstituted piperidine with4 and 6 carbon substituents.

The configuration of the hydrogen atom at C(5) and C(9) is referred to the hydrogen at C(3) and is either in a cis-(Z) or trans-(E) relationship.
