Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor modulators. It plays an important role in the production of certain insecticides and biologically active compounds due to its ability to mimic structural features of natural neurotransmitters. Its cyclopropane ring and chloropyridine moiety contribute to enhanced binding affinity and metabolic stability in final active ingredients. Commonly employed in agrochemical research for creating novel crop protection agents with improved selectivity and potency.
