Used in organic synthesis as a building block for pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. It serves as an intermediate in the production of complex molecules, particularly in the development of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and crop protection agents. Its bromine and nitrile functional groups make it versatile for further chemical modifications, such as coupling reactions or cyclization processes. Applied in research for designing novel compounds with potential therapeutic or pesticidal properties. Its role in creating heterocyclic structures is valuable in medicinal chemistry and material science.
