Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of central nervous system agents. It serves as a building block for creating active pharmaceutical ingredients due to its amine functionality and aryl-halide group, which allow for further chemical modifications. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for structure-activity relationship studies, especially in the design of receptor ligands targeting neurological disorders. Its cyclopropyl and bromophenyl moieties contribute to enhanced metabolic stability and binding selectivity in drug candidates.
