Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other bioactive molecules. Its nitroindazole core provides a versatile scaffold for medicinal chemistry optimization. Commonly employed in research settings to construct more complex heterocyclic systems via reduction of the nitro group or coupling reactions. Also utilized in the preparation of potential antiviral and anticancer agents due to the biological relevance of indazole derivatives. Stable and suitable for use in multi-step organic syntheses under various reaction conditions.
