Structural determinants of affinity of N<sup>6</sup>-substituted-5'-C-(ethyltetrazol-2-yl)adenosine and 2-chloroadenosine derivatives at adenosine receptor (AR) subtypes were studied with binding and molecular modeling. Small N<sup>6</sup>-cycloalkyl and 3-halobenzyl groups furnished potent dual acting A<sub>1</sub>AR agonists and A<sub>3</sub>AR antagonists. 4 was the most potent dual acting human (h) A<sub>1</sub>AR agonist (K<sub>i</sub> = 0.45 nM) and A<sub>3</sub>AR antagonist (K<sub>i</sub ...[more]
