Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of herbicides and fungicides. Its trifluoroacetamide structure enhances metabolic stability and bioavailability in active compounds. Also employed in research for designing novel fluorinated molecules with improved lipophilicity and resistance to degradation. Shows potential in crop protection agents due to its electron-withdrawing trifluoromethyl group and halogenated aromatic ring, which contribute to target specificity and potency.
