Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, particularly in the development of agrochemicals and bioactive molecules. Its structure supports the introduction of the tert-butyl carbamate (Boc) protecting group, which is valuable in multi-step organic synthesis for masking amine functionalities. The presence of the trifluoromethyl and chloro substituents enhances lipophilicity and metabolic stability, making it useful in the design of compounds with improved pharmacokinetic properties. Commonly employed in medicinal chemistry for constructing analogs in structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies.
