N-(4-Chlorobenzyl)-N-(pyridin-2-yl)nitrosoamine is mainly used as a research compound to study nitrosamine chemistry, metabolism, and potential carcinogenic mechanisms. It also serves as a model for investigating structure–activity relationships of aromatic nitrosamines. Careful handling is required due to its likely toxic and carcinogenic nature.
