• New pyrazolo[4,3-d]pyrimidin-7-amines were synthesized as A1/A2A AR antagonists.
• The 5-(3-phenylpropyl)-derivative 25 is a dual A1/A2A receptor antagonist.
• The 5-(3-arylpropyl)-substituted compounds 26–31 show high A1 receptor affinities.
• Through an in silico receptor-driven approach, affinities of 25–31 were rationalized.
In previous research, several 7-amino-2-arylpyrazolo[4,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives were identified as highly potent and selective antagonists at the human A3 adenosine receptor. Structure–activity relationship studies highlighted that affinity and selectivity depended on the nature of the substituents at the 5- and 7-positions of the pyrazolo[4,3-d]pyrimidine scaffold. In particular, small lipophilic residues at the 5-position and a free amino group at position 7 afforded compounds able to bind all four human (h) adenosine receptors. Hence, to shift affinity toward the hA1 and/or hA2A subtypes, alkyl and arylalkyl chains of different length were appended at position 5 of the 2-phenylpyrazolo[4,3-d]pyrimidin-7-amine. Among the new compounds, a dual hA1/hA2A receptor antagonist was identified, namely the 5-(3-phenylpropyl) derivative 25, which shows high affinity both at human A1 (Ki = 5.31 nM) and A2A (Ki = 55 nM) receptors. We also obtained some potent and selective antagonists for the A1 receptor, such as the 5-(3-arylpropyl)-substituted compounds 26–31, whose affinities fall in the low nanomolar range (Ki = 0.15–18 nM). Through an in silico receptor-driven approach, the obtained binding data were rationalized and the molecular bases of the hA1 and hA2A AR affinity and selectivity of derivatives 25–31 are explained.
