Cell Suspension cultures of Thamnosma montana were grown in Gamborg B5 medium which was best suited for acridone alkaloid formation. From the lyophilized cell material nine acridones and three acridone-monoglucosides have been isolated which were found for the first time in the genus Thamnosma. Moreover, N-methylacridone which is known from the intact plant was found. Gravacridonol monoglucoside was identified as a new alkaloid. Interestingly, most isolated alkaloids belong to the dihydrofuroacridones.
