Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals, particularly in the production of herbicides and plant growth regulators. It also serves in the development of specialty chemicals such as dyes, catalysts, and polymer stabilizers. Its structural properties make it suitable for use in organic reactions requiring selective amine functionality, including reductive amination and Schiff base formation. Additionally, it finds application in research settings for the preparation of ligands and functionalized molecules in medicinal chemistry.
