logP | logP | inf_logp | sup_logp |
The logarithm of the partition coefficient between n-octanol and water, characterizing lipophilicity. XLOGP3 and OpenBabel methods were benchmarked on a set of 1300 molecules with experimental logP values from US National Cancer Institute, showing that XLOGP3 (r2=0.94) give a better prediction accuracy. Lipinski RO5 stands on CLOGP values, but Mannhold et al. benchmarked several models and showed that XLOGP3 and CLOGP methods give similar results [46] |
