Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of agricultural chemicals, particularly herbicides and insecticides. Its structure allows for selective functionalization, making it valuable in creating active ingredients that target specific plant or pest systems. Also employed in pharmaceutical research for building complex nitrogen-containing compounds. Commonly utilized in cross-coupling reactions, such as Suzuki or Negishi reactions, to form carbon-carbon bonds in advanced organic synthesis. Preferred in agrochemical development due to its stability and reactivity profile.
