Used in the synthesis of pharmaceutical intermediates, particularly in the development of fluorinated active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) where the amino and hydroxyl groups allow for further functionalization. Its structure supports coupling reactions in dye and pigment manufacturing, especially in azo dye synthesis for textiles and imaging agents. Also employed in research for developing novel compounds with potential biological activity, including antimicrobial or anti-inflammatory properties. The presence of fluorine enhances metabolic stability in drug design, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry.
