Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of biologically active compounds, particularly in pharmaceuticals targeting neurological disorders. Its chiral cyclopropane structure with a bromopyridine moiety enables selective transformations, making it valuable in developing serotonin or dopamine receptor modulators. Commonly employed in cross-coupling reactions due to the bromine handle, allowing extension of the molecular framework for drug discovery research. Also utilized in the preparation of potent CNS agents, including those with antidepressant or antipsychotic activity.
