Abstract Phytochemical study on the roots of Sophora tonkinensis Gagnep. led to the isolation of fifteen compounds, including eleven flavonoids (1–11) and four phenolic acids (12–15). The structures of these compounds were elucidated based on NMR and HR-ESIMS analysis, further supported by comparison with previous literatures. Among them, compounds 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12 and 13 were firstly discovered from S. tonkinensis, compound 8 was firstly discovered from the genus Sophora. Furthermore, the chemotaxonomic significance of the obtained compounds was discussed in detail.
