Property Insights of Methyl Methanesulfonate

The XLogP value of -0.4 indicates that Methyl Methanesulfonate is hydrophilic (water-soluble), making it suitable for aqueous formulations and biological assay applications. With a topological polar surface area (TPSA) of 51.8 Ų, Methyl Methanesulfonate exhibits relatively low polarity, potentially indicating favorable cell membrane permeability. Following Lipinski's Rule of Five, Methyl Methanesulfonate has 0 hydrogen bond donor(s) and 3 hydrogen bond acceptor(s), all within the drug-like range, suggesting favorable oral bioavailability potential.
