Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and other bioactive molecules. Its structure supports coordination with metal catalysts, making it valuable in catalytic reactions and cross-coupling processes. Also employed in agrochemicals for the design of novel pesticides and herbicides due to its ability to enhance molecular stability and binding affinity. Additionally, it serves as a building block in medicinal chemistry for optimizing drug solubility and metabolic stability.
