Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of agricultural chemicals, particularly in the production of neonicotinoid insecticides. It plays an important role in creating active ingredients that target insect nervous systems, offering high efficacy against a range of pests in crop protection. Its structure allows for further chemical modifications, making it valuable in developing new agrochemicals with improved selectivity and potency. Additionally, it is utilized in research for novel heterocyclic compounds in pesticide development.
