Used as a chiral intermediate in the synthesis of biologically active compounds, particularly in pharmaceuticals targeting central nervous system disorders. Its oxazole core and bromopyridine moiety enable further functionalization through cross-coupling reactions, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry for building complex molecules. Commonly employed in the development of kinase inhibitors and receptor modulators due to its structural rigidity and stereochemical purity. Also utilized in asymmetric synthesis to introduce chirality in drug candidates.
