Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of bioactive molecules with potential analgesic or anti-inflammatory properties. Its structure allows for easy modification in medicinal chemistry, making it valuable in creating libraries of compounds for drug discovery. Commonly employed in organic synthesis to introduce morpholine-containing moieties into target molecules, enhancing solubility and bioavailability. Also utilized in the preparation of heterocyclic compounds relevant to agrochemicals and functional materials.
