Answer:

Palmitoleic acid

Step-by-step explanation:

Since in the ibuprofen you have an carboxyl group, and this is the group most likely to interact with the receptors, you need to find a molecule that has a similar structure of ibuprofen and also having the carboxyl group, this molecule is the Palmitoleic acid
