Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of dyes and pigments, particularly for producing azo dyes that exhibit good light and wash fastness. Employed in the development of pharmaceuticals, where the bromo and amino functional groups allow for selective modifications in drug design. Serves as a building block in agrochemicals for creating herbicides and fungicides due to its reactivity and stability. Also utilized in research laboratories for the preparation of fluorescent probes and sensors, taking advantage of its phenolic and amine groups for conjugation and signal detection.
