Abstract

The literature concerning the genus Vinca has been reviewed. Extraction of Vinca minor L. (Fam. Apocynaceae) with ammonia and benzene yielded a crude alkaloidal fraction. From the crude alkaloid, by a chromatographic process, a crystalline alkaloid has been isolated. The empirical formula, molecular weight, melting point, ultraviolet and infrared spectra, and color reactions of this alkaloid are reported.
