Used as a key chiral intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical agents, particularly in the development of serotonin and dopamine receptor modulators. Its enantiomeric purity makes it valuable in producing active ingredients for central nervous system drugs, including those targeting depression, schizophrenia, and Parkinson’s disease. Commonly employed in asymmetric synthesis routes due to its stable amine functionality and rigid cyclic structure, facilitating selective reactions. Also utilized in the preparation of bioactive molecules for medicinal chemistry research and drug discovery programs.
