Used as a versatile ligand in coordination chemistry, particularly in the design of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and supramolecular architectures. Its dual pyridyl and piperazine groups enable strong binding to transition metals, making it valuable in catalysis and sensor development. Also investigated for its potential in constructing porous materials for gas storage and separation. Additionally, it serves as a building block in pharmaceutical research due to its structural similarity to bioactive molecules, supporting the development of new therapeutic agents.
