Chemical Property Profile of Cyclopentanone
Property Insights of Cyclopentanone
The XLogP value of 0.4 suggests moderate lipophilicity, balancing water solubility and membrane permeability for Cyclopentanone. With a topological polar surface area (TPSA) of 17.1 Ų, Cyclopentanone exhibits relatively low polarity, potentially indicating favorable cell membrane permeability. Following Lipinski's Rule of Five, Cyclopentanone has 0 hydrogen bond donor(s) and 1 hydrogen bond acceptor(s), all within the drug-like range, suggesting favorable oral bioavailability potential.
