Used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its bromine functionality allows for nucleophilic substitution reactions, enabling the introduction of the pyrrolidine-2,5-dione (succinimide) group into larger molecules. Commonly employed in the development of bioactive compounds where the succinimide moiety contributes to stability or specific biological activity. Also utilized in the synthesis of functionalized polymers and as a building block in medicinal chemistry for constructing nitrogen-containing heterocycles.
