Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of herbicides and plant growth regulators. Its pyrimidine core and functional groups support the creation of compounds with biological activity in crop protection and medicinal chemistry, targeting metabolic and enzymatic pathways. Also employed in organic synthesis research to develop new derivatives for antimicrobial, antiviral, and neurological applications, allowing molecular modifications to enhance efficacy and reduce side effects.
