This chemical is widely used as a reagent in organic synthesis, particularly in the formation of carbon-carbon bonds through Grignard reactions. It is highly effective in introducing the 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl group into various organic molecules, which is valuable in the development of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and advanced materials. The trifluoromethyl groups enhance the lipophilicity and metabolic stability of the resulting compounds, making it a key intermediate in the synthesis of bioactive molecules. Additionally, it is utilized in the preparation of ligands for catalysis and in the modification of polymers to impart unique properties such as increased chemical resistance and thermal stability. Its reactivity and selectivity make it a preferred choice in fine chemical and industrial applications.
