Used as a key intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of pharmaceuticals and bioactive molecules. Its structure allows for selective functionalization, making it valuable in the development of nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds, especially diazepane-based scaffolds. Commonly employed in the synthesis of receptor ligands and enzyme inhibitors due to its conformational stability and ability to mimic peptide bonds. Also utilized in medicinal chemistry for building blocks in drug discovery programs targeting central nervous system disorders and antimicrobial agents.
