Contribution to the Phytochemical Study of Egyptian Tamaricaceous Plants

A novel flavonol trisulphate, quercetin 7-methyl ether $3,3',4'-tri-O-KSO_3$ was isolated from the fresh leaves of Tamarix amplexicaulis (Tamaricaceae) along with the known flavonol mono sulphates, quercetin $3-O-KSO_3$ and quercetin 4'-methyl ether $3-O-KSO_3$. Structures were achieved through conventional analytical methods, including electrophoretic analysis and confirmed by FAB-MS and NMR spectroscopy.
