Used as an intermediate in pharmaceutical synthesis, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other bioactive molecules targeting cancer and inflammatory diseases. Its structure supports the construction of complex drug candidates by providing a stable piperazine core functionalized with an indazole moiety, known for its role in enhancing binding affinity to biological targets. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for SAR studies and scaffold modification to optimize potency, selectivity, and pharmacokinetic properties.
