Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors for cancer treatment. It serves as a building block in medicinal chemistry due to its ability to form hydrogen bonds and participate in heterocyclic ring systems. Commonly employed in the preparation of biologically active compounds targeting inflammatory diseases and neurological disorders. Also utilized in agrochemical research for designing new pesticides with improved selectivity and efficacy. Its structural features make it valuable in combinatorial chemistry and high-throughput screening for drug discovery.
