Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other biologically active compounds. Its functional groups allow for selective modifications, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry for constructing complex heterocyclic systems. It is also employed in agrochemical research for designing novel pesticides and herbicides due to its ability to enhance binding affinity and selectivity in target molecules. The compound's halogen and amine groups facilitate cross-coupling reactions, enabling its use in building blocks for advanced organic synthesis.
