Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of biologically active heterocyclic compounds. It serves in the preparation of pyrrole-based derivatives that exhibit potential antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer properties. Its functional groups enable easy modification for use in medicinal chemistry research and drug discovery. Also employed in agrochemicals for designing novel pesticides and herbicides due to its reactivity and structural features. Commonly utilized in organic synthesis to build complex nitrogen-containing ring systems.
