'''Theobromine''' ('''3,7-dimethyl-1H-purine-2,6-dione''' or '''xantheose''') is a bitter, white [[Psychoactive class::stimulant]] drug of the [[xanthine]] class that is closely related to [[caffeine]]. It is one of the main metabolites of [[caffeine]] and is the main alkaloid of [[theobroma cacao]] and its preparations: cocoa and chocolate. It is similar to [[caffeine]] in both its chemical structure and effects but weaker in its antagonism of adenosine receptors.
