Chemical Property Profile of 2-Hydroxy-p-toluic acid
Property Insights of 2-Hydroxy-p-toluic acid
The XLogP value of 3.0 indicates that 2-Hydroxy-p-toluic acid is lipophilic (fat-soluble), which may influence its absorption, distribution, and formulation strategy. With a topological polar surface area (TPSA) of 57.5 Ų, 2-Hydroxy-p-toluic acid exhibits relatively low polarity, potentially indicating favorable cell membrane permeability. Following Lipinski's Rule of Five, 2-Hydroxy-p-toluic acid has 2 hydrogen bond donor(s) and 3 hydrogen bond acceptor(s), all within the drug-like range, suggesting favorable oral bioavailability potential.
