Used in pharmaceutical synthesis as an intermediate for bioactive compounds, particularly in the development of central nervous system agents. Its structure supports the design of selective receptor modulators due to the constrained cyclopropane ring enhancing metabolic stability and binding affinity. Commonly employed in the preparation of antidepressants and anxiolytic drugs. Also utilized in agrochemical research for creating novel active ingredients with improved environmental profiles. The amine functionality allows for easy derivatization, making it valuable in combinatorial chemistry and high-throughput screening campaigns.
