Used as an intermediate in pharmaceutical synthesis, particularly in the development of bioactive molecules and drug candidates targeting neurological and inflammatory conditions. Its structure supports the construction of complex indoline-based frameworks found in several therapeutic agents. Commonly employed in cross-coupling reactions, such as Suzuki or Buchwald-Hartwig, to introduce functionalized indoline moieties into larger molecules. Also utilized in medicinal chemistry research for the design of enzyme inhibitors and receptor modulators.
