2-(2-Chlorophenyl)propionic acid, commonly known as ketoprofen, is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that exhibits analgesic and antipyretic properties. It is characterized by its chemical formula C15H14ClO2 and a molecular weight of approximately 265.73 g/mol. The substance appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder and is typically soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, but has limited solubility in water. Its structure features a propionic acid moiety attached to a chlorophenyl group, which contributes to its pharmacological activity. Ketoprofen works by inhibiting cyclooxygenase enzymes (COX-1 and COX-2), thereby reducing the synthesis of prostaglandins involved in inflammation and pain signaling. This compound is often used in the treatment of various conditions, including arthritis and other inflammatory disorders. Safety and efficacy profiles are well-documented, but it may cause gastrointestinal side effects and should be used with caution in individuals with certain health conditions.

2-(2-Chlorophenyl)propanoic acid is a chiral compound that is used as a chiral selector in the formation of racemic mixtures. It can be used to separate enantiomers and also to produce optically pure cis- or trans-2-(2-chlorophenyl)propanoic acid. The 2-chloro group on this compound interacts with the hydrogen atoms on the adjacent carbon, which has been shown by spectra analysis. This interaction results in a constant that can be optimized with the use of appropriate chromatographic methods.
