Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other biologically active molecules. Its structure allows for selective functionalization, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry for constructing nitrogen-containing heterocycles. Commonly employed in cross-coupling reactions such as Suzuki or Buchwald–Hartwig aminations to build complex drug-like molecules. Also utilized in agrochemical research for designing novel active ingredients with targeted activity.
