description This study presents the synthesis and comprehensive characterization of ketoprofen 1,4-sorbitan ester, a novel compound with potential applications in drug delivery. The compound was synthesized through a two-step process involving the acid-catalyzed dehydration of <i>D</i>-Glucose to form 1,4-sorbitan, followed by esterification with ketoprofen. The structures of ketoprofen 1,4-sorbitan ester and the reference compound, ketoprofen methyl ester, were rigorously analyzed using a combination of advanced analytical techniques. High-resolution accurate mass liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry was used to determine the precise molecular mass and elemental composition of the synthesized compounds. <sup>1</sup>H and <sup>13</sup>C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy provided detailed information on the molecular structure and atomic connectivity to identify the specific functional groups and confirm the formation of ester bonds.
