Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of kinase inhibitors and antiviral agents. Its structure allows for selective binding in biological systems, making it valuable in drug discovery. Commonly employed in the preparation of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) where nitrogen-rich heterocycles enhance metabolic stability and target affinity. Also utilized in agrochemicals for the design of novel pesticides due to its ability to modulate enzyme activity in pests. Its fluorinated moiety improves membrane permeability and bioavailability in final compounds.
