Chemical Property Profile of Chlorohexidine
Property Insights of Chlorohexidine
The XLogP value of 0.1 suggests moderate lipophilicity, balancing water solubility and membrane permeability for Chlorohexidine. The TPSA of 178.0 Ų indicates high polarity, suggesting Chlorohexidine may have limited membrane permeability but good aqueous solubility. Following Lipinski's Rule of Five, Chlorohexidine has 6 hydrogen bond donor(s) and 2 hydrogen bond acceptor(s), which may warrant consideration for formulation optimization.
