3-Bromo-4-methylphenoxy)(tert-butyl)dimethylsilane is an acceptor that can be used in the synthesis of ligands. This compound has been shown to have antibacterial properties against Gram-positive bacteria and some Gram-negative strains. The carboxylic acid group on this molecule makes it hydrophilic, which is why it is more effective against bacteria than other hydrophobic compounds. 3-Bromo-4-methylphenoxy)(tert-butyl)dimethylsilane has been shown to interact with prostate specific antigen (PSA), which is a protein that can be used as a biomarker for prostate cancer. This compound also contains a benzene ring, which may have anti-inflammatory properties.
