Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of dyes and pigments, particularly in the production of azo dyes for textiles and inks. It also serves in the manufacture of photographic chemicals and antioxidants for rubber and plastics. Its derivatives are found in some agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals, where it contributes to the development of active ingredients requiring aromatic amine structures. Due to its electron-rich aromatic ring, it is valuable in organic synthesis for coupling reactions and the construction of more complex molecules.
