Copper ibuprofenate is a coordination complex consisting of copper(II) and the conjugate base of ibuprofen.

Structure

Copper ibuprofenate adopts a typical Chinese lantern structure, as seen for many transition metal carboxylate complexes. X-ray crystallography reveals a polymer with a bonding motif very similar to that of copper(II) trifluoroacetate.[1]

Preparation

The compound is prepared by the reaction of sodium ibuprofenate with copper(II) sulfate.[2][3]

Uses

It has been suggested that copper complexes of anti-inflammatory drugs are more active than the parent drug[4] and produce fewer gastrointestinal side-effects.[5]

In 2008, a United States patent was issued for the utilization of ibuprofenate complexes (including copper ibuprofenate) as a wood preservative.[6]
