SMILES: C=CCOC1=C(C=C(C=C1)CC(=O)O)Cl

IUPAC name: 2-(3-chloro-4-prop-2-enoxyphenyl)acetic acid

ChEBI definition: An aromatic ether in which the ether oxygen links an allyl group to the 4-position of (3-chlorophenyl)acetic acid.A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, it was withdrawn from the UK market in 1979 due to concerns with its association with vasculitis and rash.

Pharmacological roles (ChEBI): non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, non-narcotic analgesic, drug allergen.

Also known as: Alclofenac, Alclofenaco, Allopydin, Epinal, Medifenac, Mervan, MY-101, Neosten, Neoston, Prinalgin, Reufenac, W 7320

Patent coverage: 3,666 distinct patent families (14,349 SureChEMBL compound mentions), from 2 matched compound structure(s). One matched structure accounts for 14,210 (99%) of the total. Mentions count patents naming the compound (not distinct inventions), so promiscuous / reference molecules inflate the mention figure — families are the dedup metric.
