title: [Alkaloids of Vinca rosea L. introduced to Western Georgia].
abstract: Vinca roseae L. (Саtharanthus rosea (L.) G. Don) was introduced at Kobuleti experimental station of medical plants. The object of investigation was the plant material of Vinca roseae L. collected in May, 2005., September, 2006 and October, 2009. Total alkaloids were obtained in accordance with Atta- ur-Rachman method. The variability of the quantitative and qualitative composition of total alkaloids and vincaleikoblastin (VLB) fraction during vegetation was studied. It was established that the maximal content of total alkaloids and VLB fraction of Vinca roseae L. is accumulated in the phase of secondary flowering, hence the collecting of a plant material is recommended to be made during the aforesaid vegetation phase as for this period it is a rather high output of a raw material, alkaloid complex and VLB faction. Alkaloids vinkaleikoblastin, ajmalicine and new epimer tetrahydroalstonine with С3Н-α- orientation were yielded, separated and identified using modern physical-chemical and spectral methods (13С NMR).
