Used primarily as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other bioactive molecules. Its hydrazine and pyridine functionalities enable participation in key coupling and cyclization reactions, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry for constructing nitrogen-containing heterocycles. The electron-withdrawing trifluoromethyl group enhances metabolic stability and binding affinity in target molecules, which is advantageous in drug design. It is also explored in agrochemical research for developing novel active ingredients with improved efficacy and selectivity.
