Abstract: From the roots of Rhaponticum uniflorum a new triterpene was isolated together with ursolic acid(2), 3-oxo-19a-hydroxyurs-12-en-28-oic acid (3), pomolic acid (4), 2α,3α,19α-trihydroxyurs-12-en-28-oic acid (5), arctic acid (6), catechin (7) and b-sitosterol (8). The structure of the new compound was elucidated as 2α,3α,19α,25-tetrahydroxyurs-12-en-23,28-dioic acid (1) on the basis of spectral and chemical methods.
