Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the production of antifungal and antiviral agents. Its structure supports the development of active ingredients in medicinal chemistry due to the presence of the triazole ring, which is known for biological activity. Also employed in agrochemicals for the formulation of plant growth regulators and fungicides. Additionally, it serves as a building block in coordination chemistry for creating metal-organic frameworks with potential catalytic or sensing applications.
