Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other biologically active compounds. Its structure allows for easy functionalization, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry for building more complex molecules. Commonly employed in the preparation of drugs targeting neurological disorders and inflammatory conditions due to its ability to cross biological membranes and interact with specific enzyme systems. Also utilized in agrochemicals for the design of novel pesticides and herbicides, where its amine groups facilitate binding to target sites in pests or weeds.
