Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of sulfonamide-based drugs with antimicrobial and antidiabetic properties. It serves as a building block in medicinal chemistry due to the presence of both thiazole and sulfonamide functional groups, which are known for their biological activity. Commonly employed in the preparation of carbonic anhydrase inhibitors and other enzyme inhibitors. Also explored in agrochemical research for the development of bioactive molecules with potential fungicidal or herbicidal activity.
