Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of kinase inhibitors, particularly in targeted cancer therapies. It plays a role in modulating signaling pathways involved in cell proliferation and survival. Commonly applied in pharmaceutical research for developing drugs against solid tumors and hematologic malignancies. Also utilized in structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies to optimize potency and selectivity of inhibitor compounds. Suitable for in vitro and in vivo studies due to its stability and reactivity profile.
