Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals, particularly herbicides and plant growth regulators. Its structure allows for the development of compounds with selective activity against broadleaf weeds in cereal crops. It is also employed in the preparation of pharmaceuticals and biologically active molecules, where the pyrazolyl-pyrimidine scaffold contributes to enhanced binding affinity in certain enzyme inhibition applications. Commonly utilized in research and development for novel crop protection agents due to its reactivity and compatibility with various functionalization routes.
