Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors for cancer treatment. It serves as a building block in medicinal chemistry due to its ability to form stable heterocyclic structures that enhance binding affinity to biological targets. Also employed in agrochemical research for designing novel pesticides with improved selectivity and reduced environmental impact. Its structural features make it valuable in optimizing drug-like properties such as solubility and metabolic stability.
