Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of central nervous system (CNS) agents. Its structure supports the design of bioactive molecules due to the presence of fluorine atoms, which enhance metabolic stability and membrane permeability. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for optimizing drug candidates targeting neurological disorders. Also utilized in the preparation of enzyme inhibitors and receptor modulators where amine functionality allows for salt formation and improved solubility in formulation.
