Used in the synthesis of liquid crystals for display technologies, particularly in the production of advanced LCD screens. It serves as a key intermediate in creating mesogenic compounds that exhibit stable alignment and fast response times under electric fields. Also employed in the development of pharmaceuticals due to its amine functionality, enabling the formation of biologically active molecules. Its ether and amine groups allow for easy modification in organic reactions, making it valuable in research and industrial settings for building complex aromatic amines.
