Abstract

The traditional method of manufacture of drug ibuprofen is that of six steps. But in greener method we have synthesized the same in only single step. The traditional method of manufacture of drug ibuprofen is that of six steps. But in greener method we have synthesized the same in only single step. The synthesis of the drug was from isobutyl benzene and 2-hydroxy propanoic acid. It is widely used as an important pain killer in therapeutic field.
