Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) requiring brominated aromatic scaffolds. Its amino and ester functional groups allow for further chemical modifications, making it valuable in constructing complex drug molecules. Commonly employed in research settings for the preparation of heterocyclic compounds and in the design of novel bioactive agents. Also utilized in the agrochemical industry for the development of certain crop protection agents due to its reactivity and structural properties.
