Used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of fluorinated active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) where the fluorine atoms enhance metabolic stability and bioavailability. Its structure supports the creation of compounds with improved binding affinity to biological targets. Commonly employed in the production of anti-inflammatory, antipsychotic, and antitumor agents. Also utilized in agrochemicals for developing herbicides and pesticides due to the electron-withdrawing properties that increase environmental stability. Suitable for use in Suzuki and other cross-coupling reactions in medicinal chemistry research.
