Structure and Dynamics Investigation of Ibuprofen Dimers by DFT Method
摘要
Abstract
Ibuprofen is a representative of a group of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs widely used in modern medicine. This article presents the results of the ibuprofen structure and dynamics investigations using IR- and Raman-spectroscopy in combination with quantum chemical calculations in the DFT approximation. Ibuprofen R-S dimer cluster model was used for calculations. Discussion is focused on the key parameters of the molecular geometry of the cyclic R-S dimer and vibrations of the H-bonded carboxylic COOH group of ibuprofen.
