Used primarily in agricultural chemistry as a key intermediate in the synthesis of fungicides. It exhibits strong activity against a broad spectrum of fungal pathogens, particularly in crops such as cereals, fruits, and vegetables. Its structure enables effective systemic distribution within plants, providing both preventive and curative protection. Due to its stability and favorable environmental profile, it is preferred in formulations requiring long-lasting residue control and low mammalian toxicity. Also investigated for use in combination products to manage resistance development in target fungi.
