Abstract

Ibuprofen, an important nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agent, is one of the most prescribed drugs for the treatment of pain and inflammation from various rheumatic diseases, but some side effects can occur on long-term use. Aim: The method for synthesis optimization of new derivatives of Ibuprofen with thiazolidin-4-one moiety, with improved pharmacological and toxicological profile. Material and methods: To optimize the derivatization method of free carboxyl group of Ibuprofen (2-(4-isobutylphenyl)propionic acid) the reaction conditions were varied (reagent ratio, catalyst, reaction medium). Results: The most favorable method was proved to be the reaction between ibuprofen hydrazone and mercaptoacetic acid, in excess, at 80-85°C, for 6 h with 96% conversion rate. Conclusions: The synthesis of 2-phenyl-3-[2-(4-(isobutyl)phenyl)-2-methyl]acetamido-thiazolidin-4-one derivative was optimized in view of applying it as a general procedure for the synthesis of other derivatives with related structure. The chemical structure and molecular weight of the synthesized compound were confirmed by spectral methods (IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, HR-MS).
