Used in pharmaceutical research as a key intermediate in the synthesis of kinase inhibitors, particularly for targeting protein kinases involved in cancer and inflammatory diseases. Its structure enables selective binding to enzyme active sites, making it valuable in developing targeted therapies. Also explored in agrochemicals for designing novel pesticides due to its ability to modulate biological activity in pest organisms. Commonly employed in structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies to optimize drug candidates for improved potency and metabolic stability.
