Heterocyclic compounds play an important role in the metabolic process of the human body. The structures of vitamins, nucleotides and pigmented proteins are based on nitrogen-containing heterocycles (purines, pyrimidines, thiazoles, etc.). Based on the above, it is evident that these substances are used as building blocks for synthetic studies to find bioactive substances that can be used in the treatment of various pathological conditions. Many scientists pay special attention to xanthine derivatives in their studies, which are known to be natural compounds with low toxicity and wide range of significant pharmacological effects (antioxidative, diuretic, antibacterial, etc.). The introduction of carboxyl groups into the molecular structure of xanthine can significantly improve its synthetic potential. 3-benzyl-8-propylxanthine-7-acetic acid derivatives were synthesized and their physical and chemical properties were studied.
