The best affinity and selectivity profiles were achieved by N6-substitution with a 2-fluoro-4-chloro-phenyl- or a methyl- group. Through an in silico receptor-driven approach, the molecular bases of the hA1- and hA3AR recognition and activation of this series of 5′-C-ethyl-tetrazolyl derivatives were explained. %I ACS Publications
