SYNTHESIS OF NOVEL XANTHINE DERIVATIVES AND EVALUATION OF THEIR HYPOPHAGIC EFFECT Authors: Jaiswal S , KONDALKAR AK, SINGH J, LAL M AND KONDLAKAR SA
ABSTRACT
The objective of this work was to synthesize xanthine derivatives and evaluate the anti-obesity
action. The compounds were yellow to brown in color and obtained in 68-71 % yields and were
slightly soluble in water, insoluble in methanol and DMSO while they were soluble in chloroform.
The confirmation of the structures of the compounds was done by 1H-NMR, mass and IR spectral
study. Compounds 4a-e were found to be hypophagic and restrict the intake of food by the mice
and the hyperphagic effect of (±) - 8- OH-DPAT was antagonized by them.
