Chemical Property Profile of Salicylaldehyde
Property Insights of Salicylaldehyde
The XLogP value of 1.8 suggests moderate lipophilicity, balancing water solubility and membrane permeability for Salicylaldehyde. With a topological polar surface area (TPSA) of 37.3 Ų, Salicylaldehyde exhibits relatively low polarity, potentially indicating favorable cell membrane permeability. Following Lipinski's Rule of Five, Salicylaldehyde has 1 hydrogen bond donor(s) and 2 hydrogen bond acceptor(s), all within the drug-like range, suggesting favorable oral bioavailability potential.
