BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to novel 8-substituted xanthine derivatives and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof which are expected to exhibit therapeutic effects on various kinds of diseases caused by hyperergasia of adenosine A.sub.2 receptors, for example, Parkinson's disease, senile dementia, depression, asthma, and osteoporosis.
It is known that adenosine exhibits neurotransmitter depressing activity, bronchospasmic activity, bone absorption promoting activity, and the like via an A.sub.2 receptor. Therefore, adenosine A.sub.2 receptor antagonists (hereinafter referred to as A.sub.2 -antagonists) are expected as therapeutic agents for various kinds of diseases caused by hyperergasia of adenosine A.sub.2 receptors, for example, therapeutic agents for Parkinson's disease, anti-dementia agents, antidepressants, anti-asthmatic agents, and therapeutic agents for osteoporosis. ##STR5##

Adenosine Receptor Antagonistic Activity (Adenosine A.sub.2 Receptor Binding Test)
The test was conducted according to the method of Bruns et al. �Mol. Pharmacol., 29, 331 (1986)! with slight modification.
Corpus striatum of a rat was suspended in ice-cooled 50 mM Tris hydroxymethyl aminomethane hydrochloride (Tris HCl) buffer (pH 7.7) by using Polytron homogenizer (manufactured by Kinematicas Co.). The suspension was centrifuged (50,000.times.g, 10 minutes), and the precipitate was suspended again in the same amount of 50 mM Tris HCl buffer. The suspension was centrifuged under the same conditions, and the final precipitate was suspended once again in 50 mM Tris HCl buffer containing 10 mM magnesium chloride and 0.02 unit/mg tissue of adenosine deaminase (manufactured by Sigma Co.) to give a tissue concentration of 5 mg (wet weight)/ml.
To 1 ml of the tissue suspension thus prepared were added 50 .mu.l of a mixture of N-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine labeled with tritium (.sup.3 H-NECA: 26 Ci/mmol, manufactured by Amersham Co.) (final concentration: 3.8 nM) and cyclopentyladenosine (CPA, manufactured by Sigma Co.) (final concentration: 50 nM), and 50 .mu.l of a test compound. The resulting mixture was allowed to stand at 25.degree. C. for 120 minutes and then rapidly filtered by suction through a glass fiber filter (GF/C, manufactured by Whatman Co.). The filter was immediately washed three times with 5 ml each of ice-cooled 50 mM Tris HCl buffer, and transferred to a vial, and a scintillator (EX-H by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.) was added thereto. The radioactivity on the filter was determined with a liquid scintillation counter (manufactured by Packard instrument Co.).
The inhibition rate of the test compound against the binding of A.sub.2 receptors (.sup.3 H-NECA binding) was calculated by the following equation: ##EQU1##
The similar procedure as above was repeated to determine the radioactivity bound to the A.sub.2 receptors using 50 .mu.l of CGS 21680 labeled with tritium {.sup.3 H-2-�p-(2-carboxyethyl)phenethylamino!-5'-(N-ethylcarboxamide)adenosine: 40 Ci/mmol, manufactured by New England Nuclear Co. �J.

Test Example 3
Effect on Haloperidol-Induced Catalepsy
Parkinson's disease is a clinical syndrome caused by degeneration of nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurons. Systemic administration of haloperidol (dopamine D.sub.1 /D.sub.2 antagonist) induces catalepsy resulting from the blockade of postsynaptic dopamine D.sub.2 receptors. It is generally accepted that this haloperidol-induced catalepsy is a classical model of parkinsonism in humans �Eur. J. Pharmacol., 182, 327 (1990)!.
The experiment was performed by using several groups of 5-weeks-old male ddY mice (weighing 22 to 24 g, Japan SLC), each group consisting of 5 mice. Haloperidol (Janssen Pharmaceutica) suspended in 0.3% CMC was intraperitoneally administered to each mouse at a dose of 1.0 mg/kg. Test compounds were suspended in injectable distilled water (Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.) containing Tween 80 �polyoxyethylene (20) sorbitan monooleate!. L-DOPA (Kyowa Hakko Kogyo Co., Ltd.) and benserazide hydrochloride (Kyowa Hakko Kogyo Co., Ltd.) were suspended in 0.3% CMC. One hour after the haloperidol administration, the test compound suspensions and the control suspension �injectable distilled water (Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.) containing Tween 80! containing no test compound were orally administered to separate groups of the mice (0.1 ml per 10 g of body weight). One hour after the administration of the test compound, the forelimbs of each mouse and subsequently the hindlimbs of the same mouse were placed on a 4.5 cm-high, 1.0 cm-wide bar and catalepsy was estimated. All of the test compounds were orally administered at a dose of 10 mg/kg, and L-DOPA (100 mg/kg) and benserazide (25 mg/kg) were intraperitoneally administered together as a control experiment. The catalepsy score and the standard of judgment are shown below.
______________________________________score duration of the cataleptic posture______________________________________0: forelimbs less than 5 seconds hindlimbs less than 5 seconds1: forelimbs from 5 (inclusive) to 10 (exclusive) seconds hindlimbs less than 5 seconds2: forelimbs 10 seconds or more hindlimbs less than 5 seconds3: forelimbs from 5 (inclusive) to 10 (exclusive) seconds hindlimbs from 5 (inclusive) to 10 (exclusive) seconds; or forelimbs less than 5 seconds hindlimbs 5 seconds or more4: forelimbs 10 seconds or more hindlimbs from 5 (inclusive) to 10 (exclusive) seconds; or forelimbs from 5 (inclusive) to 10 (exclusive) seconds hindlimbs 10 seconds or more5: forelimbs 10 seconds or more hindlimbs 10 seconds or more______________________________________
The effect of the compounds was evaluated by the total of the catalepsy scores of five mice in each group (25 points at the full). The groups wherein the total score was not more than 20 points were estimated to be effective. The number of the animals showing remission against catalepsy is the number of the mice for which the catalepsy score was not more than 4 points. The remission rate shows the rate of decrease in total score based on that of the control group.
The results are shown in Table 4.

Effect on Clonidine-Induced Aggressive Behavior
The effect of a test compound on the aggressive behavior induced by intraperitoneal administration of clonidine was investigated �Eur. J. Pharmacol., 29, 374 (1968)!.
The experiment was performed by using several groups of male ddY mice (weighing 20 to 25 g, Japan SLC), each group consisting of two mice. The test compound was suspended in injectable distilled water (Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.) containing Tween 80. Clonidine hydrochloride (Sigma Co.) was dissolved in physiological saline solution (Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.). The test compound suspension and the control suspension �injectable distilled water (Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.) containing Tween 80! were orally administered to separate groups of the mice (0.1 ml per 10 g of body weight). Sixty minutes after the oral administration of the test compound, clonidine hydrochloride (20 mg/kg) was intraperitoneally injected. The number of biting attacks during 30 minutes after clonidine treatment was counted. The effect of the compound was evaluated by comparing the average number of biting attacks of the test compound-administered groups with that of control groups (Student's t-test).
The results are shown in Table 5.

It is desired that such pharmaceutical compositions are prepared in a unit dose form suitable for oral administration or administration through injection.
For preparing a pharmaceutical composition for oral administration, any useful pharmaceutically acceptable carrier can be used. For example, liquid preparations for oral administration such as suspension and syrup can be prepared using water, sugars such as sucrose, sorbitol, and fructose, glycols such as polyethylene glycol and propylene glycol, oils such as sesame oil, olive oil, and soybean oil, preservatives such as p-hydroxybenzoates, flavors such as strawberry flavor and peppermint, and the like. Powders, pills, capsules, and tablets can be prepared using excipients such as lactose, glucose, sucrose, and mannitol, disintegrating agents such as starch and sodium alginate, lubricants such as magnesium stearate and talc, binders such as polyvinyl alcohol, hydroxypropyl cellulose, and gelatin, surfactants such as fatty acid esters, plasticizers such as glycerin, and the like. Tablets and capsules are the most useful oral unit dose forms because of the readiness of administration. For preparing tablets and capsules, solid pharmaceutical carriers are used.
Injectable preparations can be prepared using a carrier such as distilled water, a salt solution, a glucose solution or a mixture of a salt solution and a glucose solution. The preparations can be prepared in the form of solution, suspension, or dispersion according to a conventional method by using a suitable solubilizing agent or suspending agent.
Compounds (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof can be administered orally in the said dosage forms or parenterally as injections. The effective dose and the administration schedule vary depending upon the mode of administration, the age, body weight, and conditions of a patient, etc. However, generally, Compound (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is administered in a daily dose of 0.01 to 25 mg/kg in 3 to 4 parts.
In addition, Compounds (I) may also be administered by inhalation in the form of aerosol, fine powder, or spray solution. In the case of aerosol administration, the compound of the present invention is dissolved in an appropriate pharmaceutically acceptable solvent such as ethyl alcohol or a combination of miscible solvents, and the resulting solution is mixed with a pharmaceutically acceptable propellant.
Certain embodiments of the invention are illustrated in the following examples, reference examples, and preparation examples.

Reference Example 17
(E)-1,3-Diethyl-8-(3-methoxystyryl)xanthine (Compound r)
3-Methoxycinnamic acid (2.48 g, 13.9 mmol) and 3-(3-diethylaminopropyl)-1-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (3.62 g, 18.9 mmol) were added to a mixture of dioxane (80 ml) and water (40 ml) containing 5,6-diamino-1,3-diethyluracil �J. Am. Chem. Soc., 75, 114 (1953)! (2.5 g, 12.6 mmol). The resulting solution was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours at pH 5.5. After a 4N aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide was added thereto to adjust the pH to >14, 40 ml of water was added and the mixture was heated under reflux for 20 minutes. After cooling, the mixture was neutralized and 50 ml of chloroform was added thereto. The organic layer was separated and the aqueous layer was extracted twice with 50 ml of chloroform. The combined extract was washed with a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, followed by evaporation under reduced pressure. The residue was recrystallized from dimethylformamide/water to give 2.10 g (yield 49%) of Compound r as a white powder.

(E)-1,3-Diethyl-8-(3-methoxystyryl)-7-methylxanthine (Compound s)
Compound r (1.70 g, 5.0 mmol) obtained in Reference Example 17 was dissolved in 40 ml of dimethylformamide. To the solution were added 1.73 g (12.5 mmol) of potassium carbonate and subsequently 0.62 ml (10.0 mmol) of methyl iodide, and the resulting mixture was stirred at 50.degree. C. for 30 minutes. After cooling, insoluble matters were filtered off, and 100 ml of water was added to the filtrate. The mixture was extracted three times with 50 ml of chloroform. The extract was washed twice with water and once with a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride, and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, followed by evaporation under reduced pressure. The obtained crude crystals were purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent: 40% ethyl acetate/hexane), followed by recrystallization from cyclohexane/toluene to give 1.10 g (yield 62%) of Compound s as pale yellow needles.
