Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical agents, particularly in the development of bioactive molecules with potential antimicrobial and antifungal properties. Its reactive functional groups make it valuable in constructing heterocyclic compounds for drug discovery. Commonly employed in organic synthesis to introduce the 3-bromoisoxazole moiety, which is found in some agrochemicals and medicinal chemistry scaffolds. Also utilized in research settings for the preparation of isoxazole-based derivatives aimed at studying structure-activity relationships in new chemical entities.
