Application
2-Phenylnicotinic acid serves as a versatile building block in medicinal chemistry, particularly in the synthesis of kinase inhibitors and other bioactive molecules targeting inflammatory pathways. Researchers utilize this compound as a precursor for metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) due to its bifunctional (carboxylate and aromatic) coordination properties. In material science, it finds application in the development of organic semiconductors and liquid crystal displays owing to its conjugated π-system.
