Used primarily as an intermediate in the synthesis of more complex chemical compounds, particularly in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries. Its structure allows it to serve as a building block for creating active ingredients in drugs and pesticides. The presence of both amino and ester functional groups makes it versatile for further chemical modifications, enabling the development of targeted molecules with specific biological activities. Additionally, it can be employed in research settings for studying reaction mechanisms or developing new synthetic pathways. Its applications are largely confined to industrial and laboratory use rather than direct consumer products.
