In the field of medicinal chemistry, the introduction of silylated groups is an important strategy to alter the activity, selectivity, and pharmacokinetics of compounds based on the diverse traits of silicon, including atomic size, electronegativity, and hydrophobicity. The hydroxy group on C-9 or C-9 and C-10 of hydroxystearic acids have been functionalized as t-butyl dimethyl silyl ether. The target compounds have been fully characterized and tested for in vitro cytotoxicity in tumor cells HT29, HCT116, CaCo2, HeLa, MCF7, U2OS, and Jurkat J6 and normal I407 cells. In particular, the silyl derivative of (
