Chemical Property Profile of Lauryl Methacrylate
Property Insights of Lauryl Methacrylate
The XLogP value of 7.2 indicates that Lauryl Methacrylate is lipophilic (fat-soluble), which may influence its absorption, distribution, and formulation strategy. With a topological polar surface area (TPSA) of 26.3 Ų, Lauryl Methacrylate exhibits relatively low polarity, potentially indicating favorable cell membrane permeability. Following Lipinski's Rule of Five, Lauryl Methacrylate has 0 hydrogen bond donor(s) and 2 hydrogen bond acceptor(s), which may warrant consideration for formulation optimization.
