Used as an intermediate in pharmaceutical synthesis, particularly in the development of bioactive molecules and drug candidates. Its structure supports the construction of complex cyclopropane-containing compounds, which are valuable in medicinal chemistry for enhancing metabolic stability and binding affinity. Commonly employed in the preparation of protease inhibitors and receptor modulators due to the constrained cyclopropane ring and the versatility of the carbamate protecting group. Also utilized in research settings for structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies involving aromatic and sterically hindered amines.
