A new series of 8-(substituted-phenyl)xanthines have been synthesized and compounds were evaluated for their affinity for A1 and A2 adenosine receptors (AR) using radioligand binding assays. The effects of varying the positions of 8-phenyl substituents on affinity and selectivity at A1 and A2A adenosine receptors have been studied. Isovanilloid 1,3-dimethyl-8-[4-methoxy-3-(2-morpholin-4-ylethoxy)phenylxanthine (9d) displayed the highest affinity and selectivity towards A2A AR subtypes with Ki = 100 nM over A1 receptors (Ki > 100 mM). It has been observed that substitution pattern on 8-phenyl group greatly affects the affinity and selectivity at adenosine receptors, with A2A tolerating bulkier substituents than did A1 receptors.
