Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, particularly in the development of dyes and functionalized anilines. It serves as a building block in the preparation of more complex organic molecules due to the presence of both bromo and amino functional groups, which are amenable to cross-coupling reactions and nucleophilic substitutions. Commonly employed in research settings for the creation of bioactive compounds and in the manufacture of specialty chemicals requiring selective derivatization.
