Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) where ether and morpholine functionalities are required. Its structure supports the creation of complex molecules with enhanced solubility and bioavailability. Also employed in the preparation of functional dyes and optical brighteners due to the nitro group’s electron-withdrawing properties and the morpholine ring’s stability. Serves as a building block in organic synthesis for constructing nitrogen- and oxygen-containing heterocycles.
