Chemical Property Profile of Orcinol
Property Insights of Orcinol
The XLogP value of 1.6 suggests moderate lipophilicity, balancing water solubility and membrane permeability for Orcinol. With a topological polar surface area (TPSA) of 40.5 Ų, Orcinol exhibits relatively low polarity, potentially indicating favorable cell membrane permeability. Following Lipinski's Rule of Five, Orcinol has 2 hydrogen bond donor(s) and 2 hydrogen bond acceptor(s), all within the drug-like range, suggesting favorable oral bioavailability potential.
