Copper naproxen

Copper naproxen is a chemical complex of copper2+ chelated with the anti-inflammatory drug naproxen.[1] Copper complexes of NSAIDs like naproxen have been shown to have greater anti-inflammatory properties than the base drug.[3][2]

Infobox references

Copper naproxen can by found as a monohydrate, and it can form complexes with other organic molecules such as nicotinyl alcohol, 3-methylpyridine, and caffeine.[1][4][5]

Preparation

Copper naproxen is prepared by reacting sodium naproxen with a copper(II) salt such as copper(II) sulfate.[1]
