Chemical Property Profile of Cadaverine
Property Insights of Cadaverine
The XLogP value of -0.6 indicates that Cadaverine is hydrophilic (water-soluble), making it suitable for aqueous formulations and biological assay applications. With a topological polar surface area (TPSA) of 52.0 Ų, Cadaverine exhibits relatively low polarity, potentially indicating favorable cell membrane permeability. Following Lipinski's Rule of Five, Cadaverine has 2 hydrogen bond donor(s) and 2 hydrogen bond acceptor(s), all within the drug-like range, suggesting favorable oral bioavailability potential.
