Used in pharmaceutical research as a potential antipsychotic agent due to its interaction with dopamine and serotonin receptors. Shows activity in modulating central nervous system pathways, making it a candidate for the development of drugs targeting psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia. Also investigated for its anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties in preclinical studies. Its structure allows for blood-brain barrier penetration, enhancing its potential for central neurological effects. Currently utilized primarily as a reference compound in receptor binding assays and neuropharmacology experiments.
