Synonyms: N6-Cyclopentyladenosine, CPA, Cyclopentyladenosine

IUPAC Name:
(2R,3R,4S,
5R)-2-[6-(cyclopentylamino)purin-9-yl]-5-(hydroxymethyl)oxolane-3,4-diol
N6-Cyclopentyladenosine is a drug which acts as a selective adenosine A1 receptor agonist (Ki values are 2.3, 790 and 43 nM for human A1, A2A and A3 receptors respectively; EC50 = 18600 nM for hA2B). It has mainly cardiovascular effects with only subtle alterations of behaviour. CPA is widely used in scientific research into the adenosine receptors and has been used to derive a large family of derivatives.
