Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other bioactive molecules. Its structure supports chelation and hydrogen bonding, making it valuable in catalysis and ligand design for metal-mediated reactions. Also employed in agrochemicals for the creation of novel pesticides and herbicides due to its ability to enhance molecular stability and target specificity. Additionally, it serves in research settings for building nitrogen-containing heterocycles and functionalized amines.
