Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals, particularly in the development of novel insecticides. It serves as a building block for neonicotinoid-like compounds, contributing to the creation of plant protection agents that target insect nervous systems. Its structure enables effective binding to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in pests, making it valuable in crop protection research. Also explored in medicinal chemistry for potential bioactive molecules due to its amide and amino functional groups.
