From aerial parts of Tripterospermum japonicum, 6'-O-beta-D-glucopyranosylmorroniside, benzophenone glucoside, named triptephenoside and 2'''- and 4'''-O-acetyl-2''-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosylisovitexins were isolated, along with known iridoid and secoiridoid glucosides, and C-glycosyl flavones.

Previously undescribed benzophenone rhamnosides, triadenosides A-F (1-6), were isolated from the aerial parts of Triadenum japonicum (Blume) Makino (Hypericaceae), where known compounds including benzophenone rhamnosides (7 and 8), benzophenone C-glucoside (9), flavonols and their glycosides (10-17), and biflavone (18) were also isolated and identified. Detailed spectroscopic analysis revealed that triadenoside A (1) was 2,3',5'-trihydroxy-4,6-dimethoxybenzophenone 2-O-α-L-rhamnopyranoside, while the absolute configuration of the rhamnosyl moiety was confirmed by HPLC analysis. Triadenosides B-E (2-5) were assigned as acetyl derivatives of 1 in their rhamnosyl moieties.

Phytochemical study on the whole plants of a Gentianaceous medicinal plant, Canscora lucidissima, gave one new acylated iridoid glucoside, canscorin A (1), and two new xanthone glycosides (2 and 3) together with 17 known compounds including five xanthones, eight xanthone glycosides, two benzophenone glucosides, caffeic acid, and loganic acid. Canscorin A (1) was assigned as a loganic acid derivative having a hydroxyterephthalic acid moiety by spectroscopic analysis together with chemical evidence, while 2 and 3 were elucidated to be a rutinosylxanthone and a glucosylxanthone, respectively. The absolute configurations of the sugar moieties of 2 and 3 were determined by HPLC analysis.

The reported toxicity of oxybenzone-based sunscreens to corals has raised concerns about the impacts of ecotourist-shed sunscreens on corals already weakened by global stressors. However, oxybenzone's toxicity mechanism(s) are not understood, hampering development of safer sunscreens. We found that oxybenzone caused high mortality of a sea anemone under simulated sunlight including ultraviolet (UV) radiation (290 to 370 nanometers).
