These above mentioned anaesthetic gases are given in increasing order of Blood Gas Partition Coefficent.

Induction and recovery will be fast with agent with less B/G partition eg. Desflurane.
And Induction and recovery will be slow with agent with more B/G partition eg. Methoxyflurane.
Similarly, Value of MAC will be less for Desflurane and will be highest for Methoxyflurane.

Hope that solves all qns related to anesthetic gas agents !
