Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of herbicides and fungicides. Its structure allows for easy functionalization, making it valuable in creating active ingredients that target specific enzymes in pests or pathogens. Commonly employed in research settings for designing novel pyrazole-based compounds with improved biological activity and selectivity. Also utilized in medicinal chemistry for building blocks in drug discovery, especially in kinase inhibitors and anti-inflammatory agents.
