Used primarily in research settings as a potent and selective agonist for benzodiazepine receptors, particularly targeting the central nervous system. It is utilized to study the effects of GABAergic modulation, including sedation, anxiolysis, muscle relaxation, and anticonvulsant activity. Due to its high affinity and selectivity, it serves as a valuable pharmacological tool in neuroscience for probing receptor subtypes and understanding the mechanisms of benzodiazepine action. Not intended for human use or clinical application; restricted to laboratory and experimental studies.
