Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of antifungal and anticancer agents. Its structure allows for easy functionalization, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry for building bioactive molecules. It is also employed in the preparation of agrochemicals and corrosion inhibitors due to its nitrogen-rich heterocyclic affinity. Its amine group facilitates conjugation with other molecular fragments, enhancing its utility in drug design and material science.
