Used as an intermediate in pharmaceutical synthesis, particularly in the development of bioactive molecules and drug candidates. Its spirocyclic structure and functional groups make it valuable for constructing complex heterocyclic compounds. The bromo substituent allows for further cross-coupling reactions, enabling the introduction of diverse chemical moieties. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for building libraries of compounds targeting neurological and inflammatory pathways. Also utilized in the preparation of kinase inhibitors and receptor modulators due to its structural rigidity and stereochemistry.
