Widely used in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly as an intermediate in the production of fluoro-substituted benzamide derivatives. It plays a key role in constructing active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) for drugs targeting inflammation, infections, and central nervous system disorders. Its fluorinated structure enhances metabolic stability and bioavailability in drug molecules. Commonly employed in agrochemical development for creating herbicides and fungicides due to improved lipophilicity and resistance to degradation. Frequently utilized in organic synthesis for acylation reactions, especially in the preparation of amides and esters under controlled conditions. Suitable for research applications in medicinal chemistry for building fluorinated aromatic scaffolds.
