Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of antidiabetic and antiviral drugs. It participates in medicinal chemistry as a building block for heterocyclic compounds due to its ability to form stable complexes and undergo functional group transformations. Its structure supports the design of enzyme inhibitors, especially those targeting metabolic pathways. Also employed in research for developing new bioactive molecules and in the preparation of pyrazole-based derivatives with potential therapeutic activity.
