Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of antiviral and anticancer agents. Its structure supports the formation of quinoxaline-based compounds that exhibit biological activity. Commonly employed in research settings to build more complex molecules with potential therapeutic effects. Also utilized in the preparation of organic semiconductors and fluorescent dyes due to its conjugated aromatic system. Suitable for use in cross-coupling reactions to modify quinoxaline derivatives for targeted applications in medicinal and materials chemistry.
