Used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals. It serves in the preparation of bioactive molecules due to the presence of both amine and ether functional groups, which can participate in various coupling and functionalization reactions. Commonly employed in the synthesis of central nervous system agents and receptor modulators. Its hydrochloride salt form enhances stability and solubility, making it suitable for use in aqueous reaction conditions. Also utilized in the production of agrochemicals and specialty polymers where aromatic ether-amine scaffolds are required.
