Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other biologically active compounds. Its structure supports the formation of heterocyclic frameworks common in medicinal chemistry. Commonly employed in research settings for constructing nitrogen-containing ring systems found in drugs targeting cancer, inflammation, and central nervous system disorders. Also utilized in agrochemical research for designing novel pesticides and herbicides due to its reactivity and ability to form diverse derivatives.
