Properties of anesthetics

Anesthetic MAC at 25°C cLogP Membrane concentration (at 1 MAC) Mole fraction (at 1 MAC)
mM mM
1,2-DFB 0.70 2.2 106 0.087
1,4-DFB 0.59 2.4 135 0.109
1,3,5-TFB 0.60 2.5 174 0.136
HFB 0.25 2.4 57 0.049
ISO 0.30 2.3 57 0.049

MAC values from Solt et al. (2006); cLogP values were estimated using the ACD/Labs LogP algorithm on ChemSpider. Concentrations and mole fractions were calculated as described in Materials and methods.
