Chemical Property Profile of Muskone
Property Insights of Muskone
The XLogP value of 6.2 indicates that Muskone is lipophilic (fat-soluble), which may influence its absorption, distribution, and formulation strategy. With a topological polar surface area (TPSA) of 17.1 Ų, Muskone exhibits relatively low polarity, potentially indicating favorable cell membrane permeability. Following Lipinski's Rule of Five, Muskone has 0 hydrogen bond donor(s) and 1 hydrogen bond acceptor(s), which may warrant consideration for formulation optimization.
