Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of fungicides and plant growth regulators. Its dithiocarbamate functional group enables effective metal chelation, making it useful in the formulation of crop protection agents. It also serves in heterocyclic chemistry as a building block for pyrazole-derived compounds with biological activity. Additionally, it finds application in material science for designing sulfur-rich polymers and ligands for catalysis.
