Used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. It serves as a building block for heterocyclic compounds due to its reactive chlorine and amide groups. Its diallyl structure allows for further cyclization reactions, making it valuable in the development of active ingredients in crop protection products. Also employed in polymer chemistry as a modifier to introduce functional groups into polymer chains, enhancing reactivity or solubility. Limited use in specialty monomers for functional resins.
