Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of biologically active compounds, particularly in pharmaceutical research targeting receptor antagonists and enzyme inhibitors. Its structure supports the development of agents with potential antipsychotic or antihypertensive activity. The tert-butyl carbamate group acts as a protecting group for the amine in multi-step organic syntheses, enabling selective reactions in complex molecule assembly. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for modifying solubility and stability of drug candidates.
