Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of active ingredients for anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial agents. Its halogenated aromatic structure makes it valuable in coupling reactions, especially in the production of complex organic molecules via cross-coupling methodologies like Suzuki or Ullmann reactions. Also employed in agrochemical manufacturing for creating herbicides and fungicides due to its ability to enhance bioactivity and stability in final compounds. The presence of both bromo and fluoro substituents allows for selective functionalization, enabling precise structural modifications in drug design and fine chemical synthesis.
