Used primarily as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its structure supports further functionalization, making it valuable in developing bioactive molecules. The dibromovinyl group allows for cross-coupling reactions, enabling the construction of complex aromatic systems. It has been explored in the development of antifungal and insecticidal agents due to its reactivity and stability under various reaction conditions. Also applied in research settings for the preparation of dimethoxy-substituted aromatic compounds with potential biological activity.
