Application
This compound is primarily employed as a key intermediate in the synthesis of nucleoside analogs and kinase inhibitors. Researchers utilize its reactive chloro and methylthio groups for Suzuki couplings, nucleophilic substitutions, and cross-coupling reactions. It has shown potential in developing antiviral and anticancer agents targeting purine-binding enzymes. The pyrrolopyrimidine scaffold is also explored in agrochemical applications as a precursor for herbicidal compounds.
