Complexes of N-methylxanthines with carboxylic acids
Keyword(s):
Complexes of caffeine and theobromine, with acetic and salicylic acid, have been studied by means of infrared spectroscopy. In the complexes with aromatic acids a fairly strong hydrogen bond exists between the carboxylic OH group and the nitrogen atom N-9 in the imidazole ring. The acetic acid complexes involve no strong intermolecular forces and are probably weak lattice complexes.The complexes with aromatic acids are discussed in relation to theories of lipid solubility and gastrointestinal absorption.
