Thirteen flavonoids were isolated from the fresh sweet fruit of Averrhoa carambola L. (Oxalidaceae), commonly known as star fruit, and their structures were determined by spectroscopic and chemical methods. 8-Carboxymethyl-(+)-epicatechin methyl ester, pinobanksin 3-O-β-d-glucoside, and carambolasides M–Q were undescribed structures. (+)-Epicatechin, aromadendrin 3-O-β-d-glucoside, helicioside A, taxifolin 3′-O-β-d-glucoside, galangin 3-O-rutinoside, and isorhamnetin 3-O-rutinoside were reported from this species for the first time. Pinobanksin 3-O-β-d-glucoside and carambolasides M–Q showed more potent 2,2′-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) radical cation scavenging activity (IC50 = 5.3–2.3 μM) than l-ascorbic acid (10.5 μM). Further, (+)-epicatechin, pinobanksin 3-O-β-d-glucoside, isorhamnetin 3-O-rutinoside, and carambolasides O–Q exhibited weak porcine pancreatic lipase inhibitory activity.
