Used in pharmaceutical research as a potent and selective inhibitor of certain kinase enzymes, particularly those involved in inflammatory and immune-mediated diseases. It has shown promise in preclinical studies for treating conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune disorders by modulating key signaling pathways. Its structure allows for high binding affinity and improved pharmacokinetic properties, making it a valuable scaffold in the development of targeted therapies. Also investigated for potential anticancer applications due to its ability to interfere with cell proliferation and survival pathways.
