Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of anti-inflammatory and analgesic agents. Its structure supports the formation of biologically active compounds that target enzyme inhibition, such as COX-2 inhibitors. Also employed in agrochemicals for creating herbicides and pesticides due to its ability to enhance molecular stability and reactivity. Additionally, it serves as a building block in the preparation of dyes and functional materials where nitrogen-rich heterocycles are required.
