Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors for cancer treatment. It serves as a building block in agrochemicals, contributing to the creation of herbicides and fungicides due to its stable heterocyclic structure. Also employed in the preparation of functional materials, including ligands for catalysis and components in electronic materials. Its amine group allows for easy functionalization, making it valuable in combinatorial chemistry and drug discovery research.
