Used primarily in pharmaceutical research, this compound acts as a potent antagonist of the histamine H3 receptor. It is investigated for its potential in treating neurological and cognitive disorders such as narcolepsy, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and Alzheimer's disease. Due to its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier and modulate neurotransmitter release, it enhances wakefulness and improves cognitive performance in preclinical models. Its structural properties make it a valuable lead compound in developing central nervous system-targeted drugs.
