Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other biologically active compounds. Its structure supports the construction of nitrogen-containing heterocycles, which are common in drug molecules targeting cancer, inflammation, and central nervous system disorders. Also employed in agrochemicals for the design of novel pesticides and herbicides due to its ability to enhance molecular binding and stability. Commonly utilized in research settings for combinatorial chemistry and high-throughput screening libraries.
