Property Insights of Isobutyronitrile

The XLogP value of 0.5 suggests moderate lipophilicity, balancing water solubility and membrane permeability for Isobutyronitrile. With a topological polar surface area (TPSA) of 23.8 Ų, Isobutyronitrile exhibits relatively low polarity, potentially indicating favorable cell membrane permeability. Following Lipinski's Rule of Five, Isobutyronitrile has 0 hydrogen bond donor(s) and 1 hydrogen bond acceptor(s), all within the drug-like range, suggesting favorable oral bioavailability potential.
