A complex of Zn(II) metal ion with the anti-inflammatory drug, 2-(3-benzoylphenyl)-propionic acid
(Ketoprofen) was isolated and investigated. The complex was characterized by elemental analysis, Fourier
transformed infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction powder (XRPD) and thermal analysis.The thermal
behavior was studied by TG/DTG and DTA methods under non-isothermal conditions in a dynamic air
atmosphere. The results provided informations of the composition, structure, thermal behavior, dehydration
and thermal decomposition. The spectroscopic study suggest that the carboxylate group of ketoprofen is
coordinate to metal as bidentate bond.
Keywords: anti-inflammatory drug, ketoprofen, FT-IR spectroscopy, X-ray analysis, thermal analysis

Infrared spectroscopy
The FT-IR spectroscopy is the most suitable technique
of the non-destructive spectroscopic methods and has
became an attractive method in the analysis of
pharmaceutical solids, since the materials are not subject
to thermal or mechanical energy during sample preparation,
therefore preventing solid-state transformation. The
appearance, respectively disappearance of new absorption
bands, broadening of bands, and alteration in intensity are
the main characteristics to evidence the differences
between substances (samples) [21,23,42,43].
