Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of kinase inhibitors for cancer therapy. Shows activity in modulating signaling pathways involved in tumor growth. Employed in research for developing targeted treatments in oncology, particularly in compounds that inhibit tyrosine kinases. Also utilized in medicinal chemistry for structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies due to its ability to bind ATP pockets in enzymes. Commonly found in preclinical studies exploring treatments for leukemia and solid tumors.
