摘要:
The present invention relates to novel xanthine derivatives and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, represented by Formula (I): ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2, and R.sup.3 independently represent hydrogen, lower alkyl, lower alkenyl, or lower alkynyl, R.sup.4 represents lower alkyl, or substituted or unsubstituted aryl, R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 independently represent hydrogen, lower alkyl, and lower alkoxy, or R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 are combined together to represent --O--(CH.sub.2)p--O-- (p is an integer of 1 to 3), n represents 0, 1, or 2, and m represents 1 or 2. The compounds of the present invention have an adenosine A.sub.2 receptor antagonistic activity, and are useful for the treatment or prevention of various kinds of diseases caused by hyperergasia of adenosine A.sub.2 receptors (for example, Parkinson's disease, senile dementia, depression, asthma, and osteoporosis).

摘要:
A process and apparatus for extracting ingredient substances from natural products by means of a pressurized fluid, particularly for decaffeinating tea leaves by means of carbon dioxide, wherein the ingredient substances are bound by an adsorbent, preferably activated carbon. The fluid is conducted through a product layer, the thickness of which in flow direction is small in comparision with that transversely of the flow direction and the fluid is passed through the product layer with changing, especially increasing, velocity. The apparatus includes a cylindrical high-pressure vessel with annular cylindrical baskets for accommodating the natural product and/or the adsorbent, and the gas flows from a cylindrical outer range to a cylindrical inner range. The time required for the treatment of leafy natural product is reduced, the flow paths of the fluid are shortened, thus diminishing the risk of clogging, and the fluid flow velocity is reduced.
摘要:
A process for decaffeinating green coffee by extraction of the coffee with water and treatment of the aqueous extract with activated carbon whereby the caffeine is largely absorbed by the activated carbon. The resulting caffeine-loaded activated carbon is then treated with a selected acid whereby the caffeine is largely removed from the activated carbon. The carbon is then washed with water until it has pH in the range of 3 to 6, determined by the standard test method for pH of activated carbon (ASTM D 3838-80). The activated carbon is then ready to be reused more than ten times in the process without further treatment.
摘要:
A process is disclosed for removing substantially all of the theobromine normally present in cacao beans. The process includes a water extraction of cacao nibs at from about 45.degree. C. to about 55.degree. C. followed by a series of water extraction steps at from about 90.degree. C. to about 105.degree. C. Theobromine and caffeine are separated in the filtrates and the final methylxanthine extracted fraction is returned to the cacao nibs mass from which a methylxanthine extracted cacao liquor is obtained.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method of separately recovering caffeine and non-caffeine solids adsorbed on activated carbon. Activated carbon containing the adsorbed solids is contacted with an aqueous basic solution to elute the non-caffeine coffee solids. The two components are separated. The activated carbon is subsequently contacted with a concentrated aqueous acidic solution to elute the relatively pure caffeine. The two components are separated. The non-caffeine solids in the basic solution may be re-adsorbed onto the activated carbon. Essentially pure caffeine may be refined from the aqueous acidic solution.
摘要:
The invention relates to a process for recovering caffeine adsorbed to activated carbon with simultaneous regeneration of the activated carbon in which the caffeine-loaded activated carbon is treated with water at a pressure of at least 86 bar and at a temperature of at least 300.degree. C.

In a process for depurinizing cocoa, green or roasted cocoa beans are extracted with water at a temperature of from 40.degree. to 60.degree. C., the extract is treated with an adsorbent based on desugared and activated carob particles in order to remove the purines therefrom, and the beans are dried and roasted. The dried beans are preferably rehydrated using the depurinized extract after being concentrated and before final roasting.The treated cocoa is useful for the production of beverages containing cocoa and, when the variant with reincorporation of the non-purine solids is applied, for the production of chocolate.
摘要:
New [8-(dialkylamino alkoxy)-caffeine]-platinum complex compounds of the general formula ##STR1## are prepared from 8-(dialkylamino alkoxy)-caffeine and hexachloro platinic acid. The complex compounds are nonpoisonous, stable and infinitely durable. In pharmacological test series distinct cytostatic activity of the complex compounds is observed and they are suitable for use as active components in pharmaceutical products.
