Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other bioactive molecules. Its structure allows for selective functionalization, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry for constructing nitrogen-containing heterocyclic systems. Commonly employed in research settings to prepare analogs for drug discovery programs targeting inflammatory diseases and certain cancers. Also utilized in agrochemical research for the design of novel pesticides due to its reactivity and stability in various coupling reactions.
