Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of azo dyes and pigments, particularly for producing yellow and orange shades. It plays a role in the manufacture of certain pharmaceuticals, including analgesics and anti-inflammatory agents, due to its aromatic amine structure. Also employed in the development of agrochemicals such as herbicides and pesticides, where it contributes to the active ingredient’s stability and reactivity. Its hydroxyl and amine groups allow for easy functionalization in organic synthesis, making it valuable in research and development of new chemical entities.
