Vincamine , with CAS number of 1617-90-9, can be called Eburnamenine-14-carboxylic acid, 14,15-dihydro-14-hydroxy-, methyl ester, (3alpha,14beta,16.) ; Oligo Proanthocyanidin ; Vincasaunier ; Vincadar ; 14,15-Dihydro-14-hydroxyeburnamenine-14-carboxylic acid methyl ester ; Eburnamenine-14-carboxylic acid, 14,15-dihydro-14-hydroxy-, methyl ester, (3.alpha.,14.beta.,16.alpha.)- . It is a white to almost white fine crystalline powder, Vincamine is often used as a nootropic agent to combat the effects of aging, or in conjunction with other nootropics (such as piracetam) for a variety of purposes. Vincamine (CAS NO.1617-90-9) is a peripheral vasodilator that increases blood flow to the brain. Vincamine is an indole alkaloid (specifically a tryptamine) found in the leaves of Vinca minor, comprising about 25-65% of the indole alkaloids found in Vinca minor by weight. Vincamine is also found in the species Catharanthus roseus. Vincamine can be synthesized from related alkaloids. |
