Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical agents, particularly in the development of antifungal and antiviral compounds. Its fluorinated cyclopropyl structure enhances metabolic stability and bioavailability in drug candidates. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies due to its rigid backbone and ability to influence potency and selectivity. Also utilized in the preparation of protease inhibitors and kinase inhibitors for targeted therapies.
