Used as a chiral intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of bioactive molecules requiring high enantioselectivity. Its oxazoline core acts as a ligand in asymmetric catalysis, enabling efficient construction of stereodefined structures important in drug discovery. Commonly applied in the preparation of protease inhibitors and central nervous system agents due to its ability to enhance metabolic stability and binding specificity. Also employed in agrochemical synthesis for creating enantiomerically pure active ingredients.
