Used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its structure allows for functionalization in heterocyclic compound development, making it valuable in creating active ingredients in crop protection agents and medicinal compounds. The ethoxyethyl group acts as a protecting group for acidic protons during synthesis, enabling selective reactions in multi-step pathways. It is also employed in the development of pyrazole-based derivatives with potential biological activity, including anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties.
