Four new derivatives of 8‐piperazine ethyl xanthine were synthesized and their bronchospasmolytic activity and A 1 ‐adenosine affinity were studied. Their relaxant action in the tracheal muscle was lower than that of theophylline and that of theophylline derivatives substituted at the 7‐position. Only compound 9 , where the methyl group in the 1‐position of the theophylline was substituted by an isobutyl group, shows a good affinity towards the A 1 ‐adenosine receptor.
