The new compound vincamine 2-ketoglutarate of the formula: SPC1 Is disclosed and is prepared by mixing 2-ketoglutaric acid and vincamine or a salt thereof in a solvent and recovering the resulting vincamine 2-ketoglutarate which has interesting properties as a vasodilator and brain oxygenator. The vincamine may be prepared by allowing a mixture of a solution of 16-epivincamine and a quaternary ammonium hydroxide to stand whereafter the vincamine is recovered.
