Chemical Property Profile of Ethylene Glycol
Property Insights of Ethylene Glycol
The XLogP value of -1.4 indicates that Ethylene Glycol is hydrophilic (water-soluble), making it suitable for aqueous formulations and biological assay applications. With a topological polar surface area (TPSA) of 40.5 Ų, Ethylene Glycol exhibits relatively low polarity, potentially indicating favorable cell membrane permeability. Following Lipinski's Rule of Five, Ethylene Glycol has 2 hydrogen bond donor(s) and 2 hydrogen bond acceptor(s), all within the drug-like range, suggesting favorable oral bioavailability potential.
