Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other biologically active compounds. Its structure supports the formation of nitrogen-containing heterocycles, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry for drug discovery. Also employed in agrochemical research for designing new pesticides and herbicides due to its reactivity and functional group compatibility. Commonly utilized in organic synthesis for constructing complex molecules through condensation and cyclization reactions. Additionally, used as a starting material in the production of ligands for coordination compounds employed in chemical catalysts.
