Used as an intermediate in pharmaceutical synthesis, particularly in the development of bioactive molecules and drug candidates. Its structure supports the construction of complex piperazine-based compounds, which are common in medicinal chemistry due to their favorable pharmacokinetic properties. The compound's protected functional groups allow selective deprotection and further derivatization, making it valuable in multi-step organic synthesis. It is also employed in the preparation of protease inhibitors and other therapeutic agents where piperazine scaffolds enhance target binding and solubility.
