Phenoxyacetic acid is a monocarboxylic acid that is the O-phenyl derivative of glycolic acid with molecular formula C8H8O3 and metabolite of 2-phenoxyethanol. It is mostly used in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals, pesticides, fungicides and dyes. Phenoxyacetic acid moiety is present as central structural part in numerous drug classes such as antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, anticonvulsant, antihypertensive and antitubercular. The commercially existing phenoxyacetic acid containing drugs are Tiaprofenic acid (NSAIDS Non steroidal anti-inflammatory), Tinnelic acid (antihypertensive), flubroprofen (arthritis treatment), Accelofenac (antiinflammatory) and zyertac (antihistaminic).This paper aims to consider the biological profile and synthesis recorded in current literature for phenoxyacetic acid derivatives. The data is taken from various data base 2009-2023. Literature review recognize that the compounds consist of phenoxyacetic acid moiety having a common fundamental feature of a numerous medicinal agents and its derivatives shows miscellaneous pharmacological activities and very easy to synthesize. This vital functional group division has widespread potential
