Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of herbicides, particularly in the development of triazine-based agrochemicals. Its structure enables effective binding to target enzymes in weeds, disrupting growth processes. Commonly employed in crop protection formulations for selective weed control in cereals and corn. Also utilized in research for developing new plant growth regulators due to its ability to mimic or interfere with natural plant hormones. Shows stability under field conditions, making it suitable for long-acting herbicidal applications.
