Used in organic synthesis as an intermediate for pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Acts as a building block in the preparation of bioactive molecules, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors. Employed in cross-coupling reactions due to the presence of the bromoaryl group, enabling the formation of C–C and C–heteroatom bonds. Also utilized in medicinal chemistry for structure–activity relationship (SAR) studies, helping optimize lead compounds for improved potency and selectivity.
