Used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals. Its strained cyclopropane ring and sulfonamide functionality make it valuable for constructing bioactive molecules. The tert-butyl group enhances lipophilicity and steric bulk, which can influence metabolic stability and binding selectivity in drug design. It is also employed in the preparation of sulfonamide-based catalysts and ligands for asymmetric synthesis.
