Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of central nervous system (CNS) agents. Its structure supports the creation of bioactive molecules with potential antidepressant or neuroprotective activity. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for building blocks in drug design due to the presence of both amine and sulfonyl functional groups, which enhance binding affinity and metabolic stability. Also utilized in research settings for the preparation of analogs in structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies.
