“…There has been one study involving the solubility of sodium ibuprofen in organic solvents. Bustamante et al 93 measured the mole-fraction solubility of sodium ibuprofen in 25 different organic solvents, including two saturated hydrocarbons (heptane and cyclohexane), one aromatic hydrocarbon (benzene), one alkyl alkanoate (ethyl ethanoate), one dialkyl ether (1,1′-oxybisethane) and one cyclic ether (1,4-dioxane), two chloroalkanes (trichloromethane and 1,2-dichloroethane) and one chlorinated aromatic hydrocarbon (chlorobenzene), seven alcohols (methanol, ethanol, 1-pentanol, 1-octanol, 1,2-ethanediol, 1,2-propanediol, 1,3-propanediol, 1,4-butanediol, and 1,2,3-propanetriol), one alkanone (propanone) and one aromatic ketone (acetophenone), and five miscellaneous organic solvents (ethanoic acid, propanoic acid, formamide, N-methylformamide, and N,N-dimethylformamide) at 298 K and atmospheric pressure. Results of the experimental measurements were used in conjunction with the modified extended Hansen method to calculate partial solubility parameters of sodium salts of carboxylic acids containing a single hydrogen bonding group (ibuprofen/sodium ibuprofen and benzoic acid/ sodium benzoate).…”
