Used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of biologically active compounds. It serves as a building block for sulfonamide-based pharmaceuticals, which are known for their antimicrobial and enzyme-inhibiting properties. Its structure supports the design of Schiff base derivatives with potential applications in medicinal chemistry, including anti-inflammatory and anticancer research. Also employed in the preparation of novel heterocyclic compounds for drug discovery and agrochemical development.
