Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of herbicides and fungicides. It serves as a building block for more complex organic molecules due to its reactive amino and bromo groups, enabling coupling reactions in drug discovery. Also employed in the preparation of dyes and pigments, where the ethoxy and amino functionalities contribute to color stability and solubility. Its selective reactivity makes it valuable in fine chemical manufacturing and research laboratories for creating specialized compounds.
