Used in pharmaceutical research as a key intermediate for developing bioactive compounds targeting neurological disorders. Shows potential in modulating central nervous system receptors, particularly in studies related to dopamine and serotonin pathways. Employed in synthesis of novel analogs for evaluating antipsychotic and antidepressant activity. Also utilized in fluorescence-based assays due to the benzo[d]thiazole moiety, enabling detection of enzyme inhibition or receptor binding in high-throughput screening. Investigated for anticancer properties in preclinical models, especially in targeting tumor-associated enzymes.
