3-->it's MPbarbital, because it has got also the metil gruop, that make more difficult membrane passage...

3.barbital?
Explanation:

Barbital lacks the bulky lipid-like side groups that most other barbiturates have. It has a partition coefficient of ~1 (equally soluble in water vs. lipid). As a consequence it is also poorly absorbed (e.g. 12%).

Phenobarbital and methylphenobarbital are more lipid soluble than barbital because of their side groups.

Thiobarbituates are barbiturates where an oxygen atom is replaced by a sulfur atom. This increases their lipid solubility.

Thiopental is highly lipid soluble with a partition coefficient of ~580

yes you are right...
