Widely used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors for cancer treatment. It plays an important role in the preparation of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) due to its ability to undergo selective substitution reactions, enabling the construction of complex heterocyclic systems. Commonly employed in research and industrial settings for the production of antitumor and anti-inflammatory agents. Its structural features make it valuable in agrochemical synthesis as well, especially in the creation of novel pesticides and herbicides with improved efficacy and selectivity.
