Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals, particularly in the production of herbicides and insecticides. Its structure allows for the development of compounds with high biological activity against pests and weeds. It is also employed in the preparation of pharmaceuticals, where it contributes to the formation of nitrogen-containing heterocyclic systems with potential therapeutic properties. Additionally, it serves in research laboratories for the construction of more complex molecules in organic synthesis, especially in the development of nicotinamide-based derivatives.
