Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of antiviral and anticancer agents. Its hydrazine functionality allows for easy derivatization, making it valuable in constructing nitrogen-containing heterocycles. Commonly employed in the preparation of pyrimidine-based kinase inhibitors and other bioactive molecules. Also utilized in agrochemical research for developing novel pesticides and herbicides due to its ability to modulate biological activity in target organisms.
