Used primarily as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. It serves as a building block in the preparation of heterocyclic compounds, particularly in the development of bioactive molecules containing triazole or pyrazole rings. Its hydrazine functionality allows for coupling reactions with carbonyl compounds, enabling the formation of hydrazones, which are valuable in medicinal chemistry for their antimicrobial and antitumor activities. Also employed in research settings for the design of novel nitroaromatic derivatives with potential applications in dyes and functional materials.
