Description

Tert-butyl 3-bromopropionate is a linker for the synthesis of pleuromutilin derivatives. It has been used as a model substrate for studying the effects of hypertrophy on cardiac muscle. Tert-butyl 3-bromopropionate has also been shown to inhibit the production of proinflammatory cytokines in response to bacterial infection, and can be used as an antibacterial agent. Tert-butyl 3-bromopropionate binds to RNA and inhibits protein synthesis, which leads to cell death by preventing the production of proteins vital for cell division. Tert-butyl 3-bromopropionate is also a potent inhibitor of chloride channels that are found in nerve cells and prevents the flow of chloride ions through these channels, leading to paralysis. This drug also inhibits hydrogen fluoride excretion in rats, which may be due to its ability to bind with chloride ions in the kidney tubules, preventing their
