Chemical Property Profile of 1-Dodecanol
Property Insights of 1-Dodecanol
The XLogP value of 5.1 indicates that 1-Dodecanol is lipophilic (fat-soluble), which may influence its absorption, distribution, and formulation strategy. With a topological polar surface area (TPSA) of 20.2 Ų, 1-Dodecanol exhibits relatively low polarity, potentially indicating favorable cell membrane permeability. Following Lipinski's Rule of Five, 1-Dodecanol has 1 hydrogen bond donor(s) and 1 hydrogen bond acceptor(s), which may warrant consideration for formulation optimization.
