Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of sulfonamide-based drugs with potential antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. It serves as a building block in medicinal chemistry due to the presence of both bromine and sulfonamide functional groups, enabling cross-coupling reactions and derivatization. Commonly employed in research for designing kinase inhibitors and other biologically active compounds. Also utilized in agrochemical research for developing novel pesticides with improved efficacy. Its reactivity allows for selective modifications, making it valuable in heterocyclic compound synthesis.
