Abstract

Synthesis of a series of new 2-phenyl-9-benzyl-8-azaadenines bearing on N6 an alkyl or aralkyl chain having a carbonyloxymethyl group on the carbon bound to N6 were reported. The ester group could assure to the molecule a better water-solubility than the 8-azaadenines 2, 6 and 9 substituted with lipophilic groups synthesised in the past. Compounds synthesised demonstrated only little capability of binding A1 adenosine receptors.
