Used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and functional materials. Its structure supports the creation of complex molecules in medicinal chemistry, especially in the design of compounds with biological activity. Commonly employed in the synthesis of kinase inhibitors and other bioactive agents. Also utilized in the preparation of advanced materials for optoelectronic applications due to its conjugated aromatic system. The tetrahydropyranyl group acts as a protective moiety, facilitating selective reactions in multi-step syntheses.
