Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors for cancer treatment and modulators of neurological pathways. Its pyridine core with bromo substituent and piperidine ether linkage supports binding to specific enzyme active sites or receptors, enhancing selectivity, potency, and metabolic stability. Commonly employed in research settings for optimizing drug candidates targeting oncological and central nervous system disorders. Also utilized in medicinal chemistry for structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies to improve bioavailability.
