Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors for cancer treatment. It is also employed in agrochemicals to create novel pesticides and herbicides due to its ability to enhance biological activity in active ingredients. Its structure supports the design of compounds with improved selectivity and metabolic stability, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry research. Additionally, it serves in the preparation of functional materials where nitrogen-rich heterocycles are required for electronic or optical properties.
