Used as an intermediate in pharmaceutical synthesis, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other biologically active compounds. The presence of the nitro-pyrazole group enables further functionalization through reduction to amino derivatives, which can be incorporated into more complex drug-like molecules. Its tert-butyl carbamate (Boc) protecting group allows for selective deprotection under mild acidic conditions, making it valuable in multi-step peptide and heterocyclic synthesis. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies due to its stability and modularity in building nitrogen-containing heterocycles.
