Used as an intermediate in pharmaceutical synthesis, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other bioactive molecules. Its structure allows for selective functionalization, making it valuable in constructing complex nitrogen-containing heterocycles. Commonly employed in cross-coupling reactions due to the presence of the bromine moiety, enabling the formation of C–C and C–N bonds. Also utilized in agrochemical research for designing novel active ingredients. The tert-butyl carbamate group acts as a protecting group for amines, facilitating controlled reactivity during multi-step syntheses.
