Used in pharmaceutical synthesis as an intermediate for developing central nervous system agents, particularly in the creation of analgesic and anti-inflammatory compounds. Its structure supports the development of receptor-targeted drugs due to the presence of the bromophenyl group, which enhances binding selectivity. Also employed in agrochemical research for designing bioactive molecules with improved stability and activity. Commonly utilized in medicinal chemistry for structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies involving piperidine-based derivatives.
