Used in organic synthesis as an intermediate for the preparation of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. It serves as a building block in the development of active compounds, particularly in the creation of molecules with benzyl carbamate structures. The bromo and fluoro substituents on the benzene ring make it a versatile reagent for further functionalization through cross-coupling reactions, such as Suzuki or Buchwald-Hartwig reactions. Its tert-butyl protecting group ensures stability during synthetic processes, allowing for selective deprotection when needed. This compound is particularly valuable in medicinal chemistry for designing drug candidates with enhanced biological activity.
