Used as an important intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of neonicotinoid insecticides. It serves as a protected amine derivative, enabling selective reactions in multi-step organic syntheses. The tert-butyl carbamate group enhances stability and solubility during processing, allowing efficient conversion to active ingredients. Commonly employed in the preparation of crop protection agents due to its reactivity and compatibility with various functional groups.
