Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of fungicides and plant growth regulators. Its triazole-thiol core provides strong coordination ability with metal ions, making it useful in catalytic systems and ligand design. Also investigated for its bioisosteric properties in medicinal chemistry to enhance metabolic stability and binding affinity in drug candidates. Shows potential in materials science due to its rigid bicyclic structure, contributing to thermal stability in specialty polymers.
