Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors for cancer treatment. It serves as a building block in the preparation of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) due to its aromatic and amine functionalities, which allow for coupling reactions in drug design. Commonly employed in research and development of targeted therapies, especially in oncology and inflammatory diseases. Its structure supports improved binding affinity and selectivity in small molecule drugs. Also utilized in agrochemical synthesis for novel pesticides and herbicides.
