Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, particularly in the development of sulfonamide-based drugs. It serves as a building block in organic synthesis due to the presence of both nitro and sulfonamide functional groups, which can be selectively modified. Commonly employed in the preparation of dyes, pigments, and specialty polymers where nitroaromatic compounds enhance stability and reactivity. Also utilized in research settings for the development of new bioactive molecules and in the modification of existing compounds to improve solubility or binding properties.
