Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of central nervous system agents. It serves as a building block in the preparation of bioactive molecules due to the presence of both amine and aromatic functionalities, enabling diverse chemical transformations. Its structural features make it valuable in medicinal chemistry for exploring new drug candidates with potential anticonvulsant or neuroprotective activity. Also utilized in research settings for designing novel heterocyclic compounds with tailored biological properties.
