Used primarily as an intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals and dyes. It serves in the production of certain herbicides and fungicides due to its aromatic amine structure, which can be modified to enhance biological activity. Also employed in the manufacture of specialty polymers and rubber chemicals, where it acts as a curing agent or antioxidant precursor. Its alkyl-substituted aniline framework makes it valuable in creating compounds with improved thermal and oxidative stability.
