Used as an intermediate in pharmaceutical synthesis, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors for cancer treatment. It serves as a building block in cross-coupling reactions, enabling the construction of complex heterocyclic systems found in bioactive molecules. Its structure supports the design of compounds targeting tyrosine kinase and other enzyme pathways involved in cell signaling. Also employed in research for developing novel anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial agents due to its favorable binding properties with biological targets.
