Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, particularly in the development of pyrazole-based bioactive compounds. Its iodo functionality allows for cross-coupling reactions, enabling the introduction of various substituents through palladium-catalyzed transformations. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for constructing heterocyclic scaffolds with potential anti-inflammatory, antiviral, or kinase inhibitory activity. Also utilized in research settings to develop novel pesticides due to the pyrazole core’s presence in several crop protection agents.
