Chemical Property Profile of 2-Ethylhexyl Acetate
Property Insights of 2-Ethylhexyl Acetate
The XLogP value of 3.2 indicates that 2-Ethylhexyl Acetate is lipophilic (fat-soluble), which may influence its absorption, distribution, and formulation strategy. With a topological polar surface area (TPSA) of 26.3 Ų, 2-Ethylhexyl Acetate exhibits relatively low polarity, potentially indicating favorable cell membrane permeability. Following Lipinski's Rule of Five, 2-Ethylhexyl Acetate has 0 hydrogen bond donor(s) and 2 hydrogen bond acceptor(s), all within the drug-like range, suggesting favorable oral bioavailability potential.
