Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other biologically active compounds. It serves as a building block in agrochemicals for creating herbicides and pesticides due to the chloropyridine moiety’s favorable binding properties. Its amine functionality allows for easy derivatization, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry for structure-activity relationship studies. Also employed in the preparation of ligands for catalysis and in the design of functional materials where nitrogen-containing heterocycles enhance electronic properties.
