Application

This compound serves as a key intermediate in the synthesis of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Researchers utilize its reactive keto-acid group for condensation reactions with hydrazines to form biologically active heterocycles. The bromo substituent enables palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions in medicinal chemistry workflows. It has demonstrated utility in developing fluorescent probes for biochemical assays due to its aromatic electron-withdrawing properties.
