Used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of cyclopropane-containing pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its reactivity allows for the introduction of the cyclopropane ring into more complex molecules, which can enhance metabolic stability and binding affinity in drug candidates. The bromine atom serves as a handle for cross-coupling reactions, while the carboxamide group can participate in hydrogen bonding or be further modified. It is also employed in the development of bioactive compounds where the strained cyclopropane ring contributes to specific conformational constraints.
