Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other bioactive molecules. Its structure allows for selective functionalization, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry for constructing nitrogen-containing heterocycles. It is also employed in the preparation of agrochemicals and functional materials where pyridine derivatives are required. The amine and ether functionalities enable coupling reactions, facilitating its incorporation into larger molecular frameworks for drug discovery research.
