Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and anti-inflammatory agents. Its structure supports the creation of bioactive molecules due to the presence of reactive functional groups that facilitate further chemical modifications. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry research for designing potent and selective drug candidates targeting various diseases, including cancer and neurodegenerative disorders. Also utilized in agrochemical research for developing new active ingredients with potential pesticidal or herbicidal activity.
