Used in organic synthesis as an intermediate for pharmaceuticals and bioactive compounds. Serves as a building block in the preparation of amide-based molecules with potential therapeutic activity. Commonly employed in the development of kinase inhibitors and other enzyme modulators due to the presence of the aminoacetamide scaffold. Also utilized in medicinal chemistry for structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies, particularly in optimizing lead compounds for improved potency and selectivity. Its hydrochloride salt form enhances solubility and stability, making it suitable for solution-phase reactions and biological screening.
