Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of drugs targeting the central nervous system. It plays a role in creating compounds with potential antipsychotic, antidepressant, and anxiolytic properties. Additionally, it is utilized in organic synthesis to introduce the piperazine moiety into complex molecules, enhancing their biological activity. Its application extends to the production of agrochemicals and specialty chemicals, where it contributes to the development of novel compounds with specific functional properties.
