General description

Ibuprofen is a non-steroidal and anti-inflammatory drug, which finds a variety of therapeutic applications in relieving pain and inflammatory disorders.

Application

Ibuprofen has been used as a test compound in studying its removal from aqueous solutions via adsorption on titanium dioxide based multi-walled carbon nanotube membranes. It is also used as an external reference standard in order to validate the purity of the macro-cyclic peptides, an emerging therapeutic drug modality, using nuclear magnetic resonance technique (NMR).
Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitor that has greater activity against COX-1 than against COX-2.

A novel class of 1-(4-methanesulfonylphenyl and 4-aminosulfonylphenyl)-5-[4-(1-difluoromethyl-1,2-dihydropyrid-2-one)]-3-trifluoromethyl-1H-pyrazole hybrid cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2)/5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) inhibitory anti-inflammatory agents was designed. Replacement of the tolyl ring present in celecoxib by the N-difluoromethyl-1,2-dihydropyrid-2-one moiety provided compounds showing dual selective COX-2/5-LOX inhibitory activities. 1-(4-Aminosulfonylphenyl)-5-[4-(1-difluoromethyl-1,2-dihydropyrid-2-one)]-3-trifluoromethyl-1H-pyrazole exhibited good anti-inflammatory
