Xanthosine comprises xanthine ring. It is derived from a purine metabolite and is a caffeine biosynthesis intermediate.
Xanthosine plays a key role in purine metabolism. High levels of xanthosine excretion is observed in breast cancer.
It crystallises from EtOH (anhydrous) or water (as dihydrate). [Howard et al. J Chem Soc 232 1949, Beilstein 31 H 28, 26 III/IV 2428.]
