Nelnumbo nucifera Gaerth. (Nymphaeaceae) has been used in a korean traditional medicine to treat fever, sunstroke and dizziness. The receptaculums of this plant were refluxed with MeOH, and then fractionated with organic solvents ($CH_2Cl_2$, EtOAc and n-BuOH) to screen whitening activity using tyrosinase inhibitory activity. EtOAc ($IC_{50}$, 45.23 ${\mu}g/ml$) fractions showed a good tyrosinase inhibitory activity. Column chromatographic separation of $CH_2Cl_2$ and EtOAc fractions of Receptaculum nelumbinis led to the isolation 3 compounds. Their chemical structures were characterized as ${\beta}$-sitosterol (1), quercetin 3-O-${\beta}$-D-galactopyranoside (2) and kaempferol 3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (3) by comparison NMR spectral data and with those in references, respectively. Isolated compounds 1 and 3 were firstly isolated from Receptaculums nelumbinis. Compounds 2 and 3 showed potent whitening activities.

The studies were camied out to evaluate the constituents in the leaves of Crataegus pinnatifida var. psilosa (Rosaceae) continuously. From the BuOH fraction of the MeOH extract, four flavonoid compounds, hyperoside (1), vitexin (2), 3"-O-rhamnosylvitexin (3) and $quercetin-3-O-{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranoslyl-(1{\rightarrow}6)-{\beta}$-D-galactopyranoside (4) were isolated and identified on the basis of their physico-chemical properties and spectroscopic evidences by comparison with authentic samples.

A new quercetin 3-O-trisaccharide was isolated from the leaves of Rubus crataegifolius (Rosaceae). The structure of this compound was determined as quercetin $3-O-{\alpha}-L-arabinofuranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}2)-{\beta}-D-xylopyranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}2)-{\beta}-D-galactopyranoside$ on the basis of 2D-NMR spectroscopic data. This flavonol glycoside was isolated for the first time from a natural source.

In order to find the antioxidative compounds, fractionation of the MeOH extract of the leaves of Crataegus pinnatifida guided by DPPH scavenging test furnished seven phenolic compounds, $quercetin-3-O-{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1{\rightarrow}6)-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ (1), myricetin-3-O-rhamnose (2), $quercetin-3-O-{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}6)-{\beta}-D-galctopyranoside$ (3), $quercetin-3-O-{\beta}-D-galactopyranoside$ (4), quercetin (5), $apigenin-8-C-{\beta}-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}6)-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ (2'-O-rhamnosylvitexin) (6) and (-)-epicatechin (7). All of isolated compounds showed the significant antioxidative effect on DPPH free radical scavenging test and TBARS assay.

A steroidal saponin, $3-O-{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}2)-[{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}3)]-{\beta}-D-glucopyranosylpennogenin$ ;(1, spiroconazole A) was isolated from the tubers of Dioscorea bulbifera L. var sativa and $^1H-and\;^{13}C-NMR$ assignment was completed using HMBC correlation. In addition, four phenolic substances, 2,7-dihydroxy-4-methoxyphenanthrene (2), quercetin (3), $quercetin-3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ (4), and $quercetin-3-O-{\beta}-D-galactopyranoside$ (5) were also isolated.

As a series of the studies on the specific and indigenous plants of Mt. Halla, the constituents from stem of Rhamnus taquetii (Rhamnaceae) were investigated. From the water fraction of the MeOH extract, a new flavonol glycoside, kaempferide-3-O-${\alpha}$-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1->3)-${\alpha}$-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1-6)-${\beta}$-D-galactopyranoside, was isolated with three known compounds, quercetin, quercetin-3-methylether, kaempferol, by column chromatographic separation using Amberlite XAD-2, ODS-gel and Sephadex LH-20 and elucidated physico-chemical evidences($^1H-NMR,\;^{13}C-NMR$,IR, EI-Mass, FAB-Mass, and G.C.),respectively.

Five phenolic compounds were isolated from the ethyl acetate fraction of leaves from Stewartia koreana, and their nitric-oxide (NO) inhibitory activities were measured to identify the major active constituents responsible for the efficacy of the extract against inflammatory reactions. These five compounds were quercetin (1), quercitrin (2), hyperin (3), quercetin-3-O-(6"-O-galloyl)-${\beta}$-D-galactopyranoside (4), and kaempferol 3-O-[2",6"-di-O-(trans-p-coumaroyl)]-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (5). Among the separated compounds in the EtOAc fraction, compounds 4 and 5 were isolated for the first time, and no study has yet reported their anti-inflammatory effects. The compounds were identified by spectroscopic analysis, and the isolated compounds showed significant NO inhibitory effects in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. Compound 5 showed the most potent inhibitory effect (63.35% inhibition) against LPS-induced NO production compared to that of compound 1 (17.17%), compound 2 (5.0%), compound 3 (3.92%), and compound 4 (6.32%) at $10{\mu}g/ml$ concentration. NO production was inhibited by suppressing the protein expression of inducible nitric-oxide synthase in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages. These results indicate that kaempferol 3-O-[2",6"-di-O-(trans-p-coumaroyl)]-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside might be the major active compound responsible for the anti-inflammatory effects of S. koreana.
