Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), particularly in the development of pyrazole-based pharmaceuticals. Its structure supports anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antipyretic activities. Commonly employed in research for designing new drug candidates targeting cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes. Also utilized in medicinal chemistry for structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies to enhance potency and reduce side effects in new anti-inflammatory agents.
