Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of insecticides, particularly in the development of next-generation neonicotinoid alternatives. Its structure enables strong binding to insect nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, making it effective against a broad spectrum of pests while showing lower toxicity to non-target organisms. It is incorporated into crop protection agents for use on fruits, vegetables, and cereals. The compound's stability and reactivity profile also make it suitable for formulation in emulsifiable concentrates and suspension concentrates. Additionally, it serves as a building block in agrochemical research for designing novel pest control agents with improved environmental and safety profiles.
