Chemical Property Profile of Diacetyl peroxide
Property Insights of Diacetyl peroxide
The XLogP value of 0.2 suggests moderate lipophilicity, balancing water solubility and membrane permeability for Diacetyl peroxide. With a topological polar surface area (TPSA) of 52.6 Ų, Diacetyl peroxide exhibits relatively low polarity, potentially indicating favorable cell membrane permeability. Following Lipinski's Rule of Five, Diacetyl peroxide has 0 hydrogen bond donor(s) and 4 hydrogen bond acceptor(s), all within the drug-like range, suggesting favorable oral bioavailability potential.
