Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of anticonvulsant and anti-inflammatory agents. Its structure supports the design of bioactive molecules due to the presence of the thiadiazolidine core, which can enhance metabolic stability and binding affinity. Also explored in agrochemical research for its potential in creating novel plant growth regulators and pesticides. Its derivatives show activity in modulating enzyme functions, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry for drug discovery.
