Sztmmary. The total assignment of the 1sC-shifts of thc complex Vi'irrclr rosca L. alkaloids vincaleucoblastine, leurosidinc and leurosinc and ol a synthctic isomer of the latter is presentcd. The structure of leurosidine is corrected and a tcntative structure lor the acid-catalyzcd product of isomerization of leurosine is proposed.A recent 1%-NMR. spectral analysis of As+idos$erma alkaloids [2] included a discussion of vindoline, which not only is a natural base but also represents one half of the complcx structures of indolc-indoline alkaloids, viz. vincaleucoblastine (VLD), (l), leurosidine (2) [3] and leurosine (3). As a consequcnce the carbon shifts of the vindoline portion (i.e. the indoline portion) of the 'dimeric' alkaloids 1 and 3 wcre assigned fully, while the velbanamine portion (i. e. the indole portion) was dcscribed only in terms 01 the shifts of the indole ring, the methyl group and the non-protonatcd carbons, The W-NMR. analysis of the methylenes and methines oi the indole half .. /
