Used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries. It serves as a building block for the preparation of bioactive molecules due to the presence of both amide and bromo functionalities, which allow for further chemical modifications. The bromine atom enables cross-coupling reactions such as Suzuki or Heck reactions, facilitating the construction of complex aromatic systems. The diethylamide group contributes to solubility and can influence the biological activity of final compounds. It is also employed in the development of receptor ligands and enzyme inhibitors in medicinal chemistry research.
