Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). It plays a key role in the production of compounds with potential therapeutic applications, such as antiviral and anticancer agents. Additionally, it is employed in the preparation of agrochemicals, including pesticides and herbicides, due to its reactivity and ability to form stable derivatives. Its pyridine moiety makes it valuable in organic synthesis for constructing complex molecules in research and industrial settings.
