Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals due to its amine functionality and solubility properties. It serves in the production of corrosion inhibitors and surfactants, where its structure enhances surface activity and metal interaction. Also employed in the formulation of specialty polymers and catalysts, contributing to improved reactivity and stability. Its ability to act as a ligand in metal complexes makes it useful in catalytic processes and chelation applications.
