Phenylsilatrane is a convulsant chemical which has been used as a rodenticide. Phenylsilatrane and some of its analogs with 4-substituents of ${\displaystyle {\ce {H,CH3,Cl,Br}}}$, and ${\displaystyle {\ce {C}}}$ ${\displaystyle {\ce {CSi(CH3)3}}}$ are highly toxic to mice. They have been observed in the laboratory to inhibit the (35)S-tert-butylbicyclophosphorothionate or TBPS binding site (GABA-gated chloride channel) of mouse brain membranes.
