Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other bioactive molecules. Its structure supports the formation of hydrogen bonds and π-π interactions, making it valuable in drug design for targeting specific enzymes and receptors. Commonly employed in agrochemicals as a building block for herbicides and insecticides due to its stability and reactivity. Also utilized in research settings for the preparation of novel heterocyclic compounds with potential therapeutic activity.
