Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). It plays a role in the production of compounds with potential therapeutic effects, such as anti-inflammatory or anticancer agents. Additionally, it is utilized in organic chemistry research for constructing complex molecules due to its reactive functional groups, which allow for further chemical modifications. Its nitro and bromo groups make it valuable in cross-coupling reactions, while the methoxy and fluoro substituents contribute to its versatility in designing specific molecular structures.
