Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other bioactive molecules targeting inflammatory and oncological diseases. Its structure allows for selective functionalization, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry for constructing complex heterocyclic systems. Commonly employed in cross-coupling reactions such as Suzuki or Buchwald-Hartwig aminations to build drug-like molecules with enhanced potency and selectivity. Also utilized in agrochemical research for designing novel pesticides with improved activity and environmental profiles.
