Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of active ingredients for cardiovascular and metabolic disorder treatments. Its sulfonamide group enhances binding selectivity in drug molecules, improving pharmacokinetic properties. Also employed in agrochemical research for designing herbicides and fungicides due to its stability and reactivity in catalytic reactions. Commonly utilized in medicinal chemistry for structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies involving heterocyclic sulfonamides.
