Used primarily as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. It plays a key role in the development of compounds with potential therapeutic properties, particularly in the creation of inhibitors or active ingredients for drugs targeting specific biological pathways. Additionally, it is utilized in the production of herbicides and pesticides, contributing to the control of weeds and pests in agricultural settings. Its bromine and methoxy groups make it a versatile building block for further chemical modifications in organic synthesis.
