The stereochemistry in solution of vincamone was deduced by proton magnetic resonance using the paramagnetic shifts reagent Eu(fod) 3 . The lanthanide induced shift computer simulation suggests that, at room temperature, the indole group is nearly planar, the rings C and E assume the envelope conformation with N‐4 and C‐16 as flaps, the ring D is in the chair one and the ethyl side chain prefers a trans position with respect to C‐15.
