Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of antimalarial and antimicrobial agents. Its structure supports the creation of bioactive molecules due to the quinoline core, which is known for interacting with biological targets. Also employed in research for developing novel organic compounds with potential therapeutic effects. Shows utility in agrochemicals as a building block for active ingredients in crop protection products. Additionally, it serves in the preparation of ligands for catalytic processes in organic synthesis.
