Cas no 961-45-5 (1,3-Dimethyl-8-phenylxanthine)

1,3-Dimethyl-8-phenylxanthine is a synthetic xanthine derivative with notable pharmacological properties. Structurally related to caffeine and theophylline, it acts as a competitive adenosine receptor antagonist, exhibiting selectivity for A? and A?? receptor subtypes. This compound is valued in research for its potential to modulate neurotransmitter release, cardiovascular function, and bronchial smooth muscle activity. Its phenyl substitution at the 8-position enhances receptor binding affinity compared to simpler alkylxanthines. The dimethyl groups at the 1- and 3-positions improve metabolic stability, making it a useful tool for studying adenosine-mediated pathways. Applications include investigations into CNS disorders, cardiovascular regulation, and inflammatory responses, where precise receptor targeting is required.
