Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other bioactive molecules. Its structure supports the construction of more complex compounds with potential anti-inflammatory, antiviral, or anticancer properties. Also employed in agrochemical research for designing novel pesticides and herbicides due to its ability to enhance molecular binding and stability. Commonly utilized in medicinal chemistry for structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies involving heterocyclic compounds.
