Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical agents, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors for cancer treatment. Its structure supports functionalization at multiple sites, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry for building complex heterocyclic systems. Commonly employed in research settings to design compounds with biological activity, especially targeting neurological disorders and oncology targets. Also utilized in agrochemical research for developing novel pesticides due to its ability to enhance binding affinity in bioactive molecules.
