The unique sulphated phenolics, gallic acid 3-methyl ether 5-potassium sulphate, isoferulic acid 3-potassium sulphate, and ellagic acid 4,4'-dimethyl ether 3-potassium sulphate have been isolated from the flowers of Tamarix amplexicaulis Ehrenb. (Tamaricaceae). The hitherto unknown natural phenolic acid, gallic acid 3-methyl ether, together with the known phenolic, gallic acid, gallic acid 4-methyl ether, isoferulic acid, ferulic acid, ellagic acid, and ellagic acid 4,4'-dimethyl ether have been also separated and characterized. The structures were established by conventional methods, including electrophoretic analysis and confirmed by ESI-MS, $^1H-\;and\;^{13}C-NMR$.

A new flavonol $3,5-di-O-KSO_3$:kaempferol 7,4'-dimethyl ether $3,5-O-KSO_3$, was isolated and identified from the flowers of Tamarix amplexicaulis. The known compounds quercetin $3-mono-O-KSO_3$, kaempferol 4'-methyl ether $3-mono-O-KSO_3$, kaempferol 7,4'-dimethyl ether $3-O-KSO_3$, quercetin 7,4'-dimethyl ether $3-mono-O-KSO_3$, kaempferol 3-O-glucuronide and quercetin 3-O-glucuronide were also separated and identified. Structures were established by conventional methods, including electrophoretic analysis, and confirmed by negative FAB-MS, $^1H-\;and\;^{13}C-NMR$.

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.
