Used as a key intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of hydrazine derivatives and nitrogen-containing heterocycles. It serves as a building block in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, where its cyclohexylidene and tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) protected hydrazine functionalities allow for selective reactions and controlled release of active moieties. Commonly employed in condensation reactions to form hydrazones, which are valuable in the development of bioactive compounds and functional materials. Its stability and reactivity profile make it suitable for use in multi-step synthetic routes requiring protection-deprotection strategies.
