Except where noted otherwise, data are given for materials in their standard state (at 25 °C, 100 kPa)Infobox references Fenamic acid is a molecule which serves as a parent structure for several non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, including mefenamic acid, tolfenamic acid, flufenamic acid, and meclofenamic acid.
This compound may be synthesized by the reaction of 2-chlorobenzoic acid and aniline, with base and copper oxide catalyst in the Goldberg reaction.[1]
The self-condensation of fenamic acid yields acridone.[1]
