Three new compounds, namely massonside C (), massonianoside F (, and 3, 8-dimethyl- herbacetin-7-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (), together with five known compounds (-), were isolated from the fresh needles of . Their structures were established by 1D, 2D NMR, HRMS and comparison with the literature data. The absolute configuration of was confirmed by a combination of X-ray single crystal analysis.
