Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of pyrazole-based active ingredients. Its aldehyde functional group allows for easy modification in organic reactions, making it valuable in constructing more complex molecules. Commonly employed in the production of crop protection agents, including certain fungicides and insecticides, due to the biological activity associated with the pyrazole core. Also utilized in research settings for the development of novel heterocyclic compounds with potential therapeutic properties.
