Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) for therapeutic drugs. It plays a role in the production of compounds with potential antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. Additionally, it is utilized in organic chemistry research for constructing complex thiazole-based molecules, which are important in drug discovery and material science. Its application extends to agrochemicals, where it contributes to the development of new pesticides and herbicides.
