Seven compounds have been isolated from methanol extracts of whole Saxifraga stellaris (Saxifragaceae) plants. They were identified as the new compound, 6- O -galloyl fructose, together with 3- O -[2- O -(β- d -xylopyranosyl)-β- d -galactopyranosyl]-kaempferol, 3- O -[2- O -(β- d -xylopyranosyl)-β- d -galactopyranosyl]-quercetin, trifolin, hyperin, resveratrol-3- O -glucoside, triandrin, by chemical and spectroscopic methods. Their free radical scavenging properties are also described.

From the whole plant of Lysimachia nummularia two new flavonol glycosides were isolated together with trifolin, isoquercitrin, myricitrin, mearnsitrin, syringetin 3-galactoside, kaempferol 3- O -rhamnosyl (1 → 2) galactoside, quercetin 3- O -neohesperidioside, rutin, kaempferol 3- O -(2,6-dirhamnosylgalactoside) and quercetin 3- O -(2,6-dirhamnosylgalactoside). The structures of the new compounds were established as myricetin 3- O -arabinofuranoside and syringetin 3- O -xylopyranoside.

From the whole plant of Lysimachia fortunei, two new flavonol glycosides were isolated together with trifolin, hyperin, isorhamnetin 3-galactoside, rutin, quercetin 3-rhamnosyl (1 → 2)galactoside, isorhamnetin 3-robinobioside and mauritianin. The structures of the new compounds were established as quercetin 3-(2,6-dirhamnopyranosylgalactopyranoside) and isorhamnetin 3-(2,6-dirhamnopyranosylgalactopyranoside).
