Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of bioactive molecules with potential neurological activity. Its rigid azabicyclic structure makes it valuable for designing drugs targeting central nervous system receptors. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies due to the stability and conformational constraints it imparts to the molecule. Also utilized in the preparation of peptidomimetics and enzyme inhibitors where steric hindrance and stereochemistry play critical roles in biological activity.
