Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors for cancer treatment. It serves as a building block in medicinal chemistry due to its ability to undergo functional group transformations, enabling the formation of complex heterocyclic systems. Commonly employed in the preparation of bioactive molecules targeting inflammatory diseases and neurological disorders. Also utilized in agrochemical research for designing new active ingredients with potential pesticidal or fungicidal activity. Its structural features make it valuable in combinatorial chemistry and high-throughput screening for drug discovery.
