Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of various agrochemicals, including herbicides and fungicides, due to its reactivity in alkylation processes. Commonly employed in the production of pharmaceuticals such as dimenhydrinate and certain local anesthetics. Serves as a precursor in the manufacture of dyes and pigments, especially azo dyes, where it contributes to color stability and solubility. Utilized in the rubber and latex industries as a vulcanization accelerator. Applied in water and wastewater treatment as a pH regulator and neutralizing agent. Plays a role in the synthesis of surfactants and corrosion inhibitors used in industrial cleaning formulations. Also involved in the production of dimethylformamide (DMF), an important industrial solvent.
