Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors. Its structure supports binding to specific enzyme targets involved in cellular signaling pathways, making it valuable in drug discovery for cancer and inflammatory diseases. The tert-butyl carbamate group acts as a protecting group during peptide or peptidomimetic synthesis, allowing selective reaction at other functional sites. It is also employed in the preparation of bioactive molecules where the piperidine and pyrimidine moieties contribute to target selectivity and metabolic stability.
