Chemical Property Profile of Triethylene Glycol
Property Insights of Triethylene Glycol
The XLogP value of -1.6 indicates that Triethylene Glycol is hydrophilic (water-soluble), making it suitable for aqueous formulations and biological assay applications. With a topological polar surface area (TPSA) of 58.9 Ų, Triethylene Glycol exhibits relatively low polarity, potentially indicating favorable cell membrane permeability. Following Lipinski's Rule of Five, Triethylene Glycol has 2 hydrogen bond donor(s) and 4 hydrogen bond acceptor(s), all within the drug-like range, suggesting favorable oral bioavailability potential.
