C-8 substituted 1,3-dipropylxanthines are typically prepared by reduction of the aminonitrosouracil 2 to the corresponding diamine, which is acylated and then treated with strongly basic or dehydrating reagents to afford the xanthine 1. Working to discover a milder, more efficient, reaction sequence it was found that the C-6 amino group of 2 can be acylated, and that treatment of the resulting compounds with Sn(OAc)2 gave 8-substituted xanthines. Overall, a one-pot conversion of the aminonitrosouracil 2 to dipropylxanthines 1a-i was achieved involving in situ acylation, reduction, and cyclodehydration. These conditions can be used to generate the imidazole substructure in the presence of acid and base sensitive groups on the C-8 position that may be problematic the conventional three-step xanthine syntheses.

Novel xanthine compounds represented by the following formula: STR1 wherein each of X 1 and X 2 independently represents oxygen or sulfur; and Q represents; STR2 where-----represents a single bond or a double bond; Y represents a single bond or alkylene, n represents 0 or 1, each of W 1 and W 2 independently represents hydrogen, lower alkyl or amino, Z represents--CH 2-,--O--,--S--or--NH--; represents STR3 each of R 1 and R 2 independently represents hydrogen, lower alkyl, allyl or propargyl; and R 3 represents hydrogen or lower alkyl, and when Q represents the groups other than STR4 each of R 1, R 2 and R. sup.3 independently represents hydrogen or lower alkyl; provided that when Q is STR5 then R 1 R 2 and R 3 are not simultaneously methyl; and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof have a diuretic effect, a renal-protecting effect and a bronchodilatory effect.
8-Polycycloalkyl-1,3-dipropylxanthines as potent and selective antagonists for A1-adenosine receptors

With the aim of characterizing the hydrophobic interactions between xanthines and the A1 receptor site, 1,3-dipropyl-8-substituted xanthines were synthesized. Introduction of a quaternary carbon and the conformationally restricted cyclopentyl moiety into the 8-position of xanthines enhanced the adenosine A1 antagonism. 1,3-Dipropyl-8-(3- noradamantyl)xanthine (42) was identified to be a selective and the most potent A1 receptor antagonist reported to date. Under our structure-activity relationship, the 8-substituent of xanthine antagonists and the N6- substituent of adenosine agonists appears to bind to the same region of the A1 receptor.
