4-(6-Bromo-2-benzothiazolyl)benzenamine is a β-amyloid PET (positron emission tomography) tracer that can be used in the diagnosis of neurological diseases, such as Alzheimer's and Down's syndrome.

4-(6-Bromo-2-benzothiazolyl)benzenamine (compound 6l) plus ultraviolet A (UVA) can induce caspase-3 activity, poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase cleavage, M30 positive CytoDeath staining, and subsequent apoptotic cell death. Treatment of A375 cells with 4-(6-Bromo-2-benzothiazolyl)benzenamine plus UVA results in a decrease in mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨ_mt), oxidative phosphorylation system (OXPHOS) subunits, and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) but an increase in mitochondrial DNA 4977-bp deletion via reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observations also show major ultrastructural alterations of mitochondria.

4-(6-Bromo-2-benzothiazolyl)benzenamine plus UVA is shown to reduce murine melanoma size in a mouse model. 4-(6-Bromo-2-benzothiazolyl)benzenamine-PDT may serve as a potential ancillary modality for the treatment of melanoma.
