Used primarily as an intermediate in organic synthesis, especially in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries. It serves as a building block for more complex heterocyclic compounds due to the reactivity of the nitro group and the pyrrole ring. The compound is involved in the preparation of bioactive molecules, including potential antifungal and antibacterial agents. It also finds use in materials science for developing specialty polymers and dyes where nitroaromatic or heterocyclic components enhance electronic or optical properties. Its role in click chemistry and cycloaddition reactions further expands its utility in research and development.
