Used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries. It serves as a building block for the preparation of more complex molecules due to the presence of both amide and bromo functional groups. The bromine atom allows for further transformations via cross-coupling reactions such as Suzuki or Heck reactions, enabling the formation of carbon-carbon bonds. The compound is also utilized in the development of bioactive compounds, including potential medicinal agents targeting central nervous system disorders or inflammation. Its reactivity and structural features make it valuable in research settings for designing novel organic compounds.
