TL;DR: Aucuboside, catalpol and antirrhinoside were found in many species: in addition some hitherto unknown, presumably iridoid glycosides were found.
Abstract: SUMMARY
A study was made of the occurrence of iridoid glycosides (giving a colour reaction with anisidine) in the Scrophulariaceae. Aucuboside, catalpol and antirrhinoside were found in many species: in addition some hitherto unknown, presumably iridoid glycosides were found. Most tribes were homogeneous as to the types of glycosides present, while the subfamilies were not.
On the basis of the prevailing glycosides the family can be segregated into the following groups:
taxa devoid of glycosides (most Gratioleae, the Calceolarieae, most Digitaleae, Sphenandra, Sutera p.p., and Nemesia).
taxa containing aucuboside and (or) catalpol (Verbasceae, Scrophularieae, Collinsieae Hemiphragmeae, Buchnereae, Veroniceae, Rhinantheae, Sutera p.p., Limosella, Mazus, Zaluzianskya, Angelonia, Diascia, Erinus, and Rehmannia).
taxa containing antirrhinoside (Antirrhineae).
the Selaginoideae with unidentified glysosides.
The genera Leucocarpus, Halleria, and Alonsoa have aberrant, but presumably iridoid glycosides, and therefore do not fit in any of the groups mentioned.

TL;DR: In a chemosystematic investigation of Digitalideae (Plantaginaceae), the water-soluble part of extracts of two species of Digitalis, three species of Isoplexis, as well as Erinus alpinus and Lafuentea rotundifolia were studied with regard to their content of main carbohydrates, iridoids and caffeoyl phenylethanoid glycosides (CPGs).

TL;DR: Loganin has been identified in five species, this being the first time that this compound has been found in the Scrophulariaceae, and is accompanied by unidentified loganin esters in the same five species.

TL;DR: The genus Campanula still appears too inclusive, and the delimitation of some other genera is open to dispute, there is also no common opinion on the arrangement of the genera in tribes.
Abstract: 1. The chromosome numbers of 38 species belonging to 11 genera of the tribe Campanuleae of Schonland’s system were determined. 13 of these species had not yet been investigated before. 2. A discussion is given of the differences between the present author’s results and those of other authors. 3. The systematic position of the species of Campanula with the diploid chromosome number 2n = 28 is reviewed. Some arguments are presented in favour of transferring Campanula erinus L. and Campanula drabifolia Sibth. to Dumortier’s genus Roucela. 4. A hypothetical explanation of the origin of the chromosome numbers 2n=28, 30, 32 and 34 of the genus Campanula is given. 5. The inclusion of Specularia perfoliata A. DC. and Specularia biflora Fisch. et Mey. in Triodanis is supported by cytological evidence. 6. Campanula vidalii Wats. and Campanula americana L. should be placed in the genera Azorina and Campanulastrum, respectively, both on morphological and cytological grounds. 7. The segregation of the genera Asyneuma, Synotoma, and Petromarula from Phyteuma is supported by cytological evidence. 8. The relation between the genera Campanula, Symphyandra, and Adenophora is discussed.
