What it means

Where does it go?

Log P is for the neutral molecule. For anything that ionizes, log D at a stated pH is the figure that matters in the body.

The math

How to convert log P to %

Log P is a logarithm of the ratio: P = 10^(log P), and the share in octanol is P ÷ (1 + P) × 100 percent. The free energy of transfer is −5.708 × log P kJ/mol.

Example: 2 log P = 99.0099 %.
