Glycosides
Glycosides (chrysandroside A and chrysandroside B) can be found in the roots of Gordonia chrysandra. Xeractinol, a dihydroflavonol C-glucoside, can be isolated from the leaves of Paepalanthus argenteus var. argenteus.
Dihydro-flavonol glycosides (astilbin, neoastilbin, isoastilbin, neoisoastilbin, (2R, 3R)-taxifolin-3'-O-beta-D-pyranoglucoside) have been identified in the rhizome of Smilax glabra.
