We present the chemical analysis of a new set of stars known to harbor low mass companions, namely HD 1237, HD 52265, HD 82943, HD 83443, HD 169830, and HD 202206. In addition, we have also analyzed HD 13445 and HD 7528}, already studied elsewhere. The abundances of C and alpha-elements O, S, Si, Ca and Ti are presented and discussed in the context of the metallicity distribution of the stars with extra-solar planets. We compare the metallicity distribution of stars with planets with the same distribution of field dwarfs. The results further confirm that stars with planets are over-abundant in [Fe/H].
