Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of biologically active compounds, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals with antimicrobial and antifungal properties. It serves as a building block in heterocyclic chemistry, enabling the construction of complex thiazine-based structures. Its sulfur-rich framework makes it valuable in coordination chemistry for forming metal complexes with potential catalytic or medicinal applications. Also employed in agrochemical research for designing novel pesticides and herbicides due to its reactivity and structural stability.
