Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and antiviral agents. Its structure supports the formation of biologically active compounds by serving as a building block in heterocyclic chemistry. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for constructing pyridine-based drug candidates due to its reactivity and ability to form hydrogen bonds. Also utilized in agrochemicals for the design of novel pesticides and herbicides where nitrogen-rich heterocycles enhance target specificity and efficacy.
