<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Some low‐volatile constituents of the absolute of <jats:italic>Boronia megastigma</jats:italic> (Rutaceae) from Tasmania were isolated and characterized. Besides β‐ionone (<jats:bold>1</jats:bold>) and many of its derivatives, e.g. <jats:bold>2–7</jats:bold>, we isolated the isomeric 3‐hydroxymegastigm‐7‐en‐9‐ones <jats:bold>8–10</jats:bold> and the megastigm‐7‐ene‐3,9‐dione (<jats:bold>11</jats:bold>). Furthermore, the <jats:italic>p</jats:italic>‐coumaric acid derivatives (<jats:italic>E</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>Z</jats:italic>)‐<jats:bold>12</jats:bold> and ‐<jats:bold>13</jats:bold>, alkyl esters of 8‐hydroxylinalool (<jats:bold>16a–g</jats:bold>) and the <jats:italic>N</jats:italic>‐[2‐(4‐prenyloxyphenyl)ethyl]tiglamide (<jats:bold>17</jats:bold>) were identified.
