Abstract:

Eight known compounds were isolated from the roots of Lysimachia clethroides. Their structures were elucidated as following based on spectral methods as kaempferol-3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (1), kaempferol 3-O-β-D-(2-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl)glucopyranoside (2), (+)-catechin (3), (–)-epicatechin (4), (+)-gallocatechin(5), (–)-epigallocatechin (6), (E)-2,3,5,4'-tetrahydroxystilbene 2-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (7), and 2,3,5,4'-tetrahydroxystilbene 3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (8). All compounds were isolated for the first time from the roots of this plant.

Key words: Lysimachia clethroides, flavonoids, stilbenoids
