Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of herbicides and fungicides due to its fluorinated aromatic structure which enhances bioavailability and metabolic stability. Its substituted aniline core allows for coupling reactions in the production of complex active ingredients. Also employed in medicinal chemistry for designing kinase inhibitors and other biologically active molecules where fluorine substitution improves target selectivity and lipophilicity.
