Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of drugs targeting neurological and psychiatric disorders. Its structure supports the creation of active ingredients in medications that modulate neurotransmitter activity. Also employed in research settings for designing novel bioactive molecules due to its amide and amine functional groups, which facilitate molecular modifications. Shows potential in the preparation of compounds with analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. Limited use in agrochemicals for developing new herbicides and plant growth regulators.
