Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of biologically active compounds, particularly kinase inhibitors. It serves in pharmaceutical research for developing anticancer agents due to its ability to modulate signaling pathways involved in cell proliferation. Its structure allows selective binding to ATP sites in kinases, making it valuable in drug discovery. Also employed in agrochemical research for designing novel pesticides with targeted activity. Commonly utilized in medicinal chemistry for structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies to optimize potency and selectivity.
