Used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of sulfonamide-based pharmaceuticals. It serves as a building block in the development of bioactive molecules, including potential antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory agents. The compound's bromine functionality allows for further cross-coupling reactions, enabling the introduction of various substituents in drug discovery pathways. It is also employed in the synthesis of agrochemicals and functional materials where sulfonamide groups enhance stability and binding properties.
