Used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of functionalized polymers and dendrimers. Its alkyne group allows for click chemistry reactions, such as copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC), enabling efficient conjugation with azide-containing molecules. The bromoalkyl chain acts as a linker or spacer, useful in pharmaceutical research for constructing bioconjugates or modifying drug molecules. Also employed in material science to anchor active compounds onto surfaces or nanoparticles through covalent bonding.
