Used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of biologically active compounds. Its sulfonamide group enables participation in peptide-like structures, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry for developing enzyme inhibitors or pharmaceutical agents. The terminal alkene allows for further functionalization via reactions such as hydroformylation, epoxidation, or cross-metathesis, facilitating the construction of complex molecules. Also explored in the development of water-soluble polymers and functional materials due to the polar sulfonamide group and reactive olefin.
