Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals, particularly herbicides and plant growth regulators. Its structure supports the development of compounds with selective activity against broadleaf weeds. Also explored in pharmaceutical research for its potential in developing bioactive molecules targeting neurological pathways. The amine functionality allows for easy modification, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry for building more complex drug candidates. Stable as a dihydrochloride salt, it is suitable for storage and use in various reaction conditions.
