Chemical Property Profile of 2-Naphthoic acid
Property Insights of 2-Naphthoic acid
The XLogP value of 3.3 indicates that 2-Naphthoic acid is lipophilic (fat-soluble), which may influence its absorption, distribution, and formulation strategy. With a topological polar surface area (TPSA) of 37.3 Ų, 2-Naphthoic acid exhibits relatively low polarity, potentially indicating favorable cell membrane permeability. Following Lipinski's Rule of Five, 2-Naphthoic acid has 1 hydrogen bond donor(s) and 2 hydrogen bond acceptor(s), all within the drug-like range, suggesting favorable oral bioavailability potential.
