Metabolite Identification
Common Name9-Methylxanthine
Description9-Methylxanthine belongs to the class of organic compounds known as xanthines. These are purine derivatives with a ketone group conjugated at carbons 2 and 6 of the purine moiety. In another study, 9-Methylxanthine, as a chemical relatives of caffeine, is able to evoke contractures in mammalian heart. 9-Methylxanthine is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). 9-Methylxanthine is a diuretic agent that serves as a smooth muscle relexant and cardiac muscle and CNS stimulant. 9-Methylxanthine is found to be effective in treating apnea in preterm infants (PMID: 11686952 ). Clinically, it is employed as a bronchodilator.
