Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of antifungal and antibacterial agents. Its structure supports click chemistry applications, making it valuable in drug discovery and bioconjugation. Commonly employed in the formation of triazole-containing compounds that exhibit enhanced biological activity and stability. Also utilized in agrochemicals and materials science for building functional molecules through copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reactions.
