Loxoprofen Usage And Synthesis
| Uses | antiinflammatory, analgesic |
| Uses | Loxoprofen is a non-selective nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that has been effective in reducing atherosclerosis in mice by reducing inflammation. Loxoprofen becomes active after metabolism in the body and inhibits the activation of cyclooxygenase. |
| Definition | ChEBI: A monocarboxylic acid that is propionic acid in which one of the hydrogens at position 2 is substituted by a 4-[(2-oxocyclopentyl)methyl]phenyl group. A prodrug that is rapidly converted to its active trans-alcohol metabolite following ora administration. |
| Synthesis | Ethyl 2-oxocyclopentanecarboxylate and potassium hydroxide in dimethylformamide were reacted with ethyl 2-(4-chloro-phenyl)propionate at 80 ??C for 2 h. The product obtained was reacted with 47% hydrobromic acid and hydrolyzed and decarboxylated to give loxoprofen. |
