Used as an intermediate in pharmaceutical synthesis, particularly in the development of bioactive molecules targeting central nervous system disorders. Its structure supports the construction of triazolopyrazine-based scaffolds, which are found in compounds with potential anxiolytic, antidepressant, and anticonvulsant activities. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for lead optimization due to its favorable solubility and stability properties. Also utilized in the preparation of kinase inhibitors and other enzyme modulators in research settings.
