Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other bioactive molecules. Its structure supports the formation of hydrogen bonds, making it valuable in drug design for targeting specific enzymes and receptors. Also employed in agrochemicals for the creation of novel pesticides and herbicides due to its ability to enhance molecular stability and binding affinity. Additionally, it serves as a building block in the preparation of functional materials and ligands for catalysis.
