Seven antioxidative flavonoids were isolated from Jindalrae flowers (Rhododendron mnonulatum Turcz.), an edible plant in Korea. These compounds were identified as afzelin, ampelopsin, catechin, myricetin, myricitrin, quercetin and quercitrin on the basis of IR, UV, FAB-MS, $^1H\;NMR,\;and\;^{13}C\;NMR$ data. These compounds were consisted of two flavonols, three flavonol glycosides, a flavane, and a dihydroflavonol. The flavonol glycosides (14.4 g) present in th ethyl ether and ethyl acetate fractions comprised up to 82% of their total flavonoid amount (17.6 g) finally recovered by means of polyamide C-200 column chromatography, preparative TLC, recrystallization, and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography. The antioxidant activities were measured in an ethanol solution of linoleic acid in the presence of ferric thiocyanate. The antioxidant efficiency increased in the order of afzrlin<$\alpha-tocopherol$

This study was carried out to investigate the constituents of Platycarya strobilacea (Juglandaceae) wood. To isolate compounds, wood was extracted with ethanol (EtOH) and then partitioned with petroleum ether, diethyl ether (Et₂O) and ethyl acetate (EtOAc) successively. After partitioned, diethyl ether fraction was subjected to column chromatography with various solvent system in silica gel and/or Sephadex LH-20. Structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods including MS, ¹H, ¹³C and 2D-NMR experiments. Three compounds were isolated from the wood and identified as kaempferol 3-O-𝛼-L-rhamnopyranoside (afzelin, I), quercetin 3-O-𝛼-L-rhamnopyranoside (quercitrin, II), myricetin 3-O-𝛼-L-rhamnopyranoside (myricitrin, III).

Four compounds, (+)-catechin (1), (-)-epicatechin (2), myricitrin (3), and hinokiflavone (4), were isolated from the needles of Juniperus occidentalis Hook. The structures of the isolated compounds were established by NMR and MS spectrometer. The antioxidant activity of the isolated compounds was determined by measuring free radical scavenging activity with DPPH and the results indicated that compound 1, 2, and 3 showed better activity than the controls, while compound 4 had weak activity compared with ${\alpha}-tocopherol$, BHT, and curcumin.

Studies on the pharmaco-constituents from the leaves of Cercts chinensis which have been used for the treatment of inflammation, contusion, dilated blood, pain of heart and stomach, edema, etc. in Korean folk remedies were carried out. Dried leaves of the plant were extracted with MeOH. The MeOH extract was suspended in distilled water and subsequently fractionated with $Et_{2}O$ and n-BuOH. From the $Et_{2}O$ and n-BuOH fractions, six phenolic compounds were isolated and identified as myricitrin($C_{21}H_{20}O_{12}, {\;}m.p.{\;}199~200^{\circ}$. $4myricetin-3-O-{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranoside$), kaempferol($C_{15}H_{10}O_{6}, {\;}m.p. 276^{\circ}$), quercetin($C_{15}Ha_{10}O_{7}, {\;}m.p.{\;}313~314^{\circ}$), quercitrin ($C_{21}H_{20}O_{12}, {\;}m.p.{\;}176~178^{\circ}, {\;}quercetin-3-O-{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranoside$), gallicin ($C_{8}H_{8}O_{5}, {\;}m.p.{\;}202~203^{\circ}$. methyl gallate), gallic acid ($C_{7}H_{6}O_{5}, {\;}m.p.{\;}260~265^{\circ}) through their physico-chemical data and UV, IR, EI-MS, $^{13}C-NMR$, and $^{1}H-NMR$ analysis with authentics.

The dried bark of Platycarya strobilacea were ground, extracted with 95% EtOH, concentrated, and one of EtOH extracts was fractionated with a series of n-hexane, dichloromethane and another was fractionated with a series of petroleumether, $Et_2O$, ethyl acetate on a separatory funnel. A portion of dichloromethane soluble was chromatographed on a Sephadex LH-20 column ($72.0{\times}5.0cm$) using EtOH-$CHCl_3$ (7:3, v/v) as eluent and A portion of $Et_2O$ soluble was chromatographed on a silica gel column ($42.0{\times}3.5cm$) using $CHCl_3$-MeOH (9:3, v/v) as eluent. The isolated compounds were identified by TLC, $^1H$-, $^{13}C$-NMR, HMBC and EI-MS. Two flavonoids and three flavonoid glycosides were isolated from the bark of P strobilacea. The structures were determined to quercetin (compound 1), myricetin (compound 2) as flavonol compounds and afzelin (compound 3), quercitrin (compound 4), myricitrin (compound 5) as flavonol glycosides, respectively, on the basis of spectrosopic data.

In this study, the antioxidative effects and component analysis of Polygonum aviculare (P. aviculare) extracts were investigated. The ethyl acetate and the aglycone fraction from P. aviculare extracts were more active than (+)-${\alpha}$-tocopherol and $\small{L}$-ascorbic acid, which are known as strong antioxidants for their antioxidative activity by the DPPH method and chemiluminescence assay. The cellular protective effects of fractions of P. aviculare on the rose-bengal sensitized photohemolysis of human erythrocytes, increased in a concentration dependent manner ($1-10{\mu}l$). In particular, the ethyl acetate fraction at a concentration of $10{\mu}l$ showed the most prominent protective effect among all the extracts (${\tau}_{50}$, 314.70 min). TLC and HPLC chromatogram of the ethyl acetate fraction of P. aviculare extracts revealed 3 main bands (PA8, PA5, PA6) and peaks (peak 1, peak 2, peak 3), which were identified as myricetin-3-O-rhamnoside (myricitrin, PA8, peak 1), quercetin-3-${\alpha}$-rhamnoside (quercitrin, PA6, peak 3) by LC/ESI-MS/MS and $^1H$-NMR respectively. These results indicate that fractions from P. aviculare could be applicable to new functional cosmetics as antioxidants.

The antimicrobial activities of Helicobacter pylori as a functional food source with water and 60% ethanol extracts from Rododendron mucronulatum Turcz. flowers were examined. The total phenol content of 60% ethanol extracts (30.6${\pm}$0.14 mg/g) from Rododendron mucronulatum Turcz. flowers was higher than that of water extracts (23.2${\pm}$0.21 mg/g). The inhibitory activities of Rododendron mucronulatum Turcz. extracts on H. pylori was determined to clear zone of 15 mm in 80% ethanol extracts. Purification of inhibitory compounds was carried out in Sephadex LH-20 and MCI-gel CHP-20 column chromatography using a gradient procedure, with increasing ethanol(0${\rightarrow}$100%) in $H_2O$. The chemical structure of the purified inhibitory compounds of H. pylori was identified to be quercitrin (quercetin-3-O- rhamnopyranoside), myricitrin (myricetin-3-O-rhamnopyranoside), quercetin by FAB-MS, NMR and IR spectra.
