Used in organic synthesis as an intermediate for pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Serves as a building block in the preparation of biologically active compounds, particularly in the development of drugs targeting central nervous system disorders and inflammation. Also employed in coordination chemistry as a ligand for metal complexes in catalysis. Shows potential in materials science for designing functional polymers and optoelectronic materials due to its aromatic and heterocyclic structure. The bromine substituent enables facile cross-coupling reactions for further derivatization.
