Used in pharmaceutical research as a building block for the synthesis of complex molecules, particularly in the development of drugs targeting neurological disorders. Its unique cyclopropane structure, combined with the fluorine atom, allows it to modulate biological activity and improve drug efficacy. It is also explored in the study of enzyme inhibitors and receptor modulators due to its ability to influence molecular interactions. Additionally, it serves as a key intermediate in the production of compounds with potential therapeutic applications in mental health and neurodegenerative diseases.
