Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of central nervous system agents. Its structure supports the creation of bioactive molecules due to the presence of both amine and ester functionalities, which are common in drug design. The bromophenyl group allows for further functionalization via cross-coupling reactions, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry for building complex molecules. It is also employed in research settings to explore new synthetic pathways and to generate analogs for structure-activity relationship studies.
