Used primarily as an intermediate in organic synthesis, especially in the pharmaceutical industry. It reacts readily with amines to form amide derivatives, making it valuable in the development of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). Its pyrazole core is a privileged structure in drug design, often associated with anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and kinase inhibitory activities. It is also employed in agrochemical synthesis for creating novel pesticides and herbicides due to its ability to enhance bioactivity and metabolic stability in target molecules.
