  • Both Ibuprofen and Aspirin have important similarities but they are not the same chemical compound. In short, Ibuprofen is not Aspirin and there are important differences.
    Looking at the molecules for both compounds, we can see that they are both made up of Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen atoms. But the way these atoms are arranged in the Ibuprofen and Aspirin molecules is different. In chemistry it is the type of atoms AND their arrangement that results in chemical and physical properties and the action of pharmaceuticals.
    Both Ibuprofen and Aspirin are Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) and relive minor pain and inflammation. Aspirin is also used for the prevention of clotting and the reduction of fever.
    Ibuprofen is also called Motrin, Advil, Nurofen
    Aspirin us usually just called "aspirin" or sometimes Acetylsalicylic acid.

    I have passed chemistry thanks to your balanced equation videos.

    Ibuprofen reduces fever as well.

    how about side affects?

    Also, the stereochemistry of ibuprofen is more complicated than acetylsalicylic acid, the ibuprofen has chiral center and aspirin no.

      I did some work after college on Ibuprofen. As I recall the one of the enantiomers doesn't do anything (but still has the side effects). Very tough to separate them on any meaningful scale.

      @@wbreslyn @Wayne Breslyn Commercial ibuprofen is mostly racemic mixture(both RSconfiguration ibuprofen) but only one configuration has the activity of antiinflamatory, that means the commercial ibuprofen only have 1/2 composition with real effect.
      So, it's very interesting knowing the stereochemistry after the synthesis, like what u said about the side effects(caused by the different config. of compound/or not.)

      @@wbreslyn And i think it's very hard using physical methods to separate the both enantiomers, much more easy using chemical reaction mechanism ways (but difficult to think it) to separate the RSconfiguration.

      We used HPLC but it was an involved process. Still awesome to watch the R and S peaks come through the column at different times (but still very close together).

    Hello Dr. B
    Can you please provide me a link of a chemistry book that students of around 15-16 years of age study in your city.
    I want to see the similarities and differences between the topics and concepts being taught to students of 15-16 years of age in your city/country and at my city/country.

      Sure! I'd say this is pretty close: flexbooks.ck12.org/cbook/ck-12-chemistry-flexbook-2.0/
      But for the Advanced Placement courses in HS it's more like this:
      openstax.org/details/books/chemistry-2e
      which is closer to an Introductory Chem course in college.
