A new cycloartane glycoside (1) was isolated from the aerial part of Thalictrum uchiyamai Nakai (Ranunculaceae). On the basis of chemical and physicochemical evidence, the aglycone structure of this compound was characterized as 116, 25-dihydroxy-3, 24-diacetoxy-9, 19-cycloartane-29-oic acid, a new derivative of cycloartane triterpene. Also the oli-gosaccharide moiety of this glycoside were determined as 29-O-${alpha}$-L-rhanmnopyranosyl- ($1rightarrow2$)-[${beta}$-D-xylofuranosyl-($1rightarrow6$)-${beta}$-D-glucopyranose by application of HMBC technoque. Consequently, the structure of compound 1 was elucidated as 29-O-${alpha}$-L-rhanmnopyranosy-($1rightarrow2$)-[${beta}$-D-xylofuranosyl-($1rightarrow6$)-${beta}$-D-glucopyranosyl-16, 25-dihydroxy-3, 24-diacetoxy-9, 19-cycloartane-29-oic acid ester.
