Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial agents. Its structure serves as a building block for heterocyclic compounds that exhibit biological activity. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for constructing more complex molecules, especially in the design of kinase inhibitors and central nervous system-targeted drugs. Also utilized in agrochemical research for developing novel pesticides due to its stability and reactivity in coupling reactions.
