Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) for various therapeutic applications. It plays a role in the production of compounds with potential anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, or antiviral properties. Additionally, it is utilized in agrochemical research for creating pesticides or herbicides due to its structural properties that can enhance biological activity. Its application extends to material science, where it serves as a building block for specialized organic compounds used in advanced materials.
