Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other biologically active compounds. Its structure supports the creation of molecules with high selectivity for specific enzyme targets, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry. Also employed in agrochemical research for designing novel pesticides due to its ability to enhance binding affinity and metabolic stability in active ingredients. Commonly utilized in heterocyclic chemistry to build complex ring systems for drug discovery and material science applications.
