Used as an intermediate in the production of agricultural chemicals, particularly triazinone-group herbicides, which effectively control broadleaf weeds in field crops such as corn and soybeans. These herbicides inhibit photosynthesis in plants by disrupting the electron transport system in chloroplasts, leading to efficient weed death. Additionally, it is utilized in the synthesis of other compounds requiring a triazine structure, found in certain pharmaceuticals and biomolecules.
