As one of the serial studies on the specific and indigenous plants of Mt. Chiri the constituents of aerial part from filipendula formosa (Rosaceae) were investigated. From of the MeOH extract, five flavonol glycosides, kaempferol-3-O-$\beta$-D-galactopyranoside, querecetin-3-O-$\beta$-D-galactopyranoside, quercetin-3-O-$\alpha$-Lrhamopyranosyl (1 6)-$\beta$-D-galactopyranoside, kaempferol-3-O-$\alpha$-L-rhamnopyranosyl (1 6)-$\beta$-D-galactopyranoside and quercetin-7-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosy-3-O-$\beta$-D-galactopyranoside were isolated by column chromatographic separation using Amberlite XAD-2 and Sephadex LH-20, and identified physicochemical evidences (IR, FAB-Mass, $^1H,{\;}^{13}C-NMR$).

Nine flavonoids (1-9) were isolated from the leaves of Morus alba (Moraceae). The structures of compounds were determined to be kaempferol-3-O-$\beta$-glucopyranoisde (astragalin, 1) kaempferol-3-O-(6"-O-acetyl)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside (2), quercetin-3-O-(6"-O-acetyl)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside (3), quercetin-3-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside (4), kaempferol-3-O-$\alpha$-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 6)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside (5), quercetin-3-O-$\alpha$-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 6)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside (rutin, 6), quercetin-3-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 6)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside (7), quercetin-3,7-di-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside (8) and quercetin (9) on th basis of spectroscopic and chemical studies. Compounds 7 and 9 exhibited significant radical scavenging effect on 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl radical.

Quercetin is one of the most distributed flavonoids in the plant kingdom and occurs naturally in a wide range of fruits and vegetables. This study was undertaken to determine whether quercetin exerts beneficial effect against necrotic and apoptotic cell death induced by hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O2$) in intestinal cells using the human-derived cultured T84 colonic epithelial cell line. Necrotic cell death was induced by exposing cells to 0.5 mM $H_2O_2$ for 2 h and apoptosis was induced by incubating cells in normal culture medium for 18 h following exposure of cells to 0.5 mM $H_2O2$ for 2 h. Cell viability was evaluated by the trypan blue exclusion assay and apoptosis was assessed by Hoechst 33258 staining and flow cytometry. $H_2O_2$ induced necrotic cell death in a time and dose-dependent fashion. Both necrotic and apoptotic cell deaths were not prevented by the antioxidants N,N'-diphenyl-p-phenylenediamine(DPPD) and Trolox, whereas both cell deaths induced by the organic hydroperoxide t-butylhydroperoxide (tBHP) were prevented by DPPD, suggesting that $H_2O_2$ induces cell death through a lipid peroxidation-independent mechanism. $H_2O2$-induced necrotic death was prevented by deferoxamine and 3-aminobenzamide, while the apoptotic cell death was not affected by these agents. Quercetin prevented both necrotic and apoptotic cell deaths induced by $H_2O_2$ in a dose-dependent manner. $H_2O_2$ caused activation of poly (ADP-ribose) polmerase (PARP), which was inhibited by deferoxamine, 3-aminobenzamide, and quercetin, but not DPPD. These results indicate that quercetin inhibits both necroticand apoptotic deaths of T84 cells. The anti-necrotic effect of quercetin may be attributed to its iron chelator activity rather than a direct $H_2O_2$ scavenging capacity and antioxidant. The present study suggests that quercetin may play a therapeutic role in the treatment of human gastrointestinal diseases mediated by oxidants.

The antioxidative constituents isolated from Hedyotis diffusa were identified as quercetin 3-O-${\beta}$-rutinoside (1) and quercetin 3-O-${\beta}$-glucoside (2). We also isolated asperuloside (3) from this plant. Identification was done based on spectroscopic analysis. Quercetin 3-O-${\beta}$-rutinoside was the stronger antioxidant than quercetin 3-O-${\beta}$-glycoside while asperuloside was inactive.

A study was carried out to evaluate flavonol glycosides in leaves of Symplocarpus renifolius (Araceae). From the water fraction of the MeOH extract, three new flavonol glycosides were isolated along with three known compounds, Kaempferol-3-O-$\beta$-glucopyranosyl-($1{\rightarrow}2$)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl-7-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside, quercetin-3-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosy-1-($1{\rightarrow}2$)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside, and caffeic acid. The structures of the new flavonol glycosides were elucidated by chemical and spectral analyses a quercetin-3-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl-($1{\rightarrow}2$)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl-7-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside, isorhamnetin-3-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 2)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl-7-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosdie, and quercetin-3-O$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl-($1{\rightarrow}2$)-$\beta$-D-glycopyranosyl-7-O-($6^{IIII}$-trans-caffeoyl)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside.

Phytochemical study of the constitutive polyphenolics of the flower aqueous alcohol extract of Tamarix tetragyna was carried out. The new sulphated flavonol, quercetin 3',4'-dimethyl ether $3-O-KSO_3$ as well as the new natural galloyl glucose, $2-O-galloyl-({\alpha}/{\beta})-^4C_1-glucopyranose$ were isolated and characterized. The known sulphated flavonols, kaempferol 7,4-dimethyl ether $3,5-di-O-KSO_3$, quercetin 7-methyl ether $3,3',4'-tri-O-KSO_3$, quercetin 7,4'-dimethyl ether $3-O-KSO_3$ and quercetin $3-O-KSO_3$ and the known sulphated phenolics, isoferulic acid $3-O-KSO_3$ and ellagic acid 4,4'-dimethyl ether $3-O-KSO_3$ were also separated and identified. The structures were established by conventional methods of analysis and confirmed by $^1H-,\;^{13}C-NMR$ and negative ESI-mass spectrometry. 2D-homonuclear chemical shift correlation NMR experiment was applied for the new natural galloylglucose.

We have previously reported the isolation of seven hydrolyzable tannins and nine flavonoids from Euphorbia pekinensis Ruprecht. Further investigation about the same plant has led to the isolation of kaempferol, quercetin, kaempferol $3-O-(2'-O-galloyl-{\beta}-_D-glucoside)$, quercetin 3-O-(2'-O-galloylrutinoside), ellagic acid and acetonyl geraniin. These compounds were isolated from this plant for the first time.
