Used primarily in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries as a key intermediate in the synthesis of biologically active compounds. It plays a role in the development of potential therapeutic agents, particularly in the creation of molecules with anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, or antifungal properties. Additionally, it is utilized in research for designing and optimizing novel thiophene-based derivatives, which are of interest due to their diverse pharmacological activities. Its structural features make it valuable for studying structure-activity relationships in drug discovery processes.
