Product Overview
Epoxycholesterol (CAS 40478-22-6), with molecular formula C27H46O2 and molecular weight 402.35 g/mol. IUPAC: 2,16-dimethyl-15-(6-methylheptan-2-yl)-8-oxapentacyclo[9.7.0.02,7.07,9.012,16]octadecan-5-ol.
Chemical Property Profile of Epoxycholesterol
Property Insights of Epoxycholesterol
The XLogP value of 8.0 indicates that Epoxycholesterol is lipophilic (fat-soluble), which may influence its absorption, distribution, and formulation strategy. With a topological polar surface area (TPSA) of 32.8 Ų, Epoxycholesterol exhibits relatively low polarity, potentially indicating favorable cell membrane permeability. Following Lipinski's Rule of Five, Epoxycholesterol has 1 hydrogen bond donor(s) and 2 hydrogen bond acceptor(s), which may warrant consideration for formulation optimization.
