Property Insights of Trimethyl orthoformate

The XLogP value of 0.2 suggests moderate lipophilicity, balancing water solubility and membrane permeability for Trimethyl orthoformate. With a topological polar surface area (TPSA) of 27.7 Ų, Trimethyl orthoformate exhibits relatively low polarity, potentially indicating favorable cell membrane permeability. Following Lipinski's Rule of Five, Trimethyl orthoformate has 0 hydrogen bond donor(s) and 3 hydrogen bond acceptor(s), all within the drug-like range, suggesting favorable oral bioavailability potential.
